Adhan is the Islamic call to prayer recited by the muezzin (chosen person at the mosque to lead the adhan)
Adhan consists of eight repeated lines and seven standard elements; Arabic transliteration and English translation are the following:
[1]Allahu Akbar
Allah is Great
(repeated 4x)
[2]Ashhadu an la ilaha illa Allah
I bear witness that there is no god except the One God (Allah).
(repeated 2x)
[3]Ashadu anna Muhammadan Rasool Allah
I bear witness that Muhammad is the messenger of Allah.
(repeated 2x)
[4]Hayya 'ala-s-Salah
Hurry to the prayer (Rise up for prayer)
(repeated 2x)
[5]Hayya 'ala-l-Falah
Hurry to success (Rise up for Salvation)
(repeated 2x)
As-salatu Khayrun Minan-nawm
Prayer is better than sleep
(repeated 2x)
*For the pre-dawn (fajr) prayer and inserted after the fifth part above.
[6]Allahu Akbar
Allah is Great
(repeated 2x)
[7]La ilaha illa Allah
There is no god except the One God (Allah)
