Al Adhan

As I walked downtown today, I was randomly (stunningly, miraculously) within earshot of two different calls to prayer from two different speakers, which blended and overlapped with each other for a few moments, playing over and through the sounds of the street. I can't begin to describe to you what that felt like, but here is another adhan:


Allah is Most Great. Allah is Most Great.
Allahu Akbar. Allahu Akbar.
Allah is Most Great. Allah is Most Great.
Allahu Akbar. Allahu Akbar.
I bear witness that there is none worthy of being worshiped except Allah.
Ash-hadu an la ilaha ill-Allah
I bear witness that there is none worthy of being worshiped except Allah.
Ash-hadu an la ilaha ill-Allah
I bear witness that Muhammad is the Apostle of Allah
Ash-hadu anna Muhammad-ar-Rasoolullah
I bear witness that Muhammad is the Apostle of Allah
Ash-hadu anna Muhammad-ar-Rasoolullah
Come to prayer. Come to prayer.
Hayya 'alas-Salah. Hayya 'alas-Salah.
Come to Success. Come to Success.
Hayya 'alal-falah. Hayya 'alal-falah
Allah is Most Great. Allah is Most Great.
Allahu Akbar. Allahu Akbar.
There is none worthy of being worshiped except Allah.
La ilaha ill-Allah
