A special podcast featuring a collection of call to prayers (Arabic أَذَان) – also spelled Azan, Ezan, Athan and Adhan.
The root of the word is ʾadhina أَذِنَ meaning “to listen, to hear, be informed about”. Another derivative of this word is ʾudhun (أُذُن), meaning “ear”.
The muezzin (Arabic: مُؤَذِّن muʾaḏḏin) is the person who recites the Azan, generally from the mosque. A professional is chosen for his good character, voice and skills to serve at the mosque.
Meaning of the Azan in English, Transliteration and Arabic Text.
