• Sunrise – Shurooq is the time of sunrise, the time when the upper limb of the sun just starts to appear just above the horizon. This marks the end of Faji morning prayer
• Dhuhr – The Dhuhr is the prayer after midday (bit before the shadow of the sun becomes twice its length from midday.

The Azan (أَذَان) is the Islamic call to prayer, recited by the muezzin. The root of the word is ʼḏn, meaning “to permit”, and another derivative of this word is uḏun, meaning “ear.”

 Azan is called out by the muezzin in the mosque, sometimes from a minaret, five times a day summoning Muslims for mandatory (fard) prayers (salah). There is a second call known as iqama (set up) that summons Muslims to line up for the beginning of the prayers. The main purpose behind the loud pronouncement of azan five times a day in every mosque is to make available to everyone an easily intelligible summary of Islamic belief. It is intended to bring to the mind of every believer and non-believer the substance of Islamic beliefs, or its spiritual ideology. Loudspeakers are sometimes installed on minarets for the purpose.

The Azan is recited from mosques all over the world using the same exact phrases and timing, which signifies the unity of all Muslim brothers and sisters in the belief of one God and his Messenger. This beautiful melodious call begins at daybreak which is referred to as the Fajr time or daybreak, and is repeated at noon, or the Dzuhr period.

The Azan is repeated in the evening to call Muslim to the Asr prayers. (more…)
