There is not a single moment when thousands of Muezzins around the world are
not proclaiming the Oneness of Almighty Allah and the Apostleship of the
noble Prophet Muhammad on the surface of this earth!

Let us begin with Indonesia right on the eastern side of the earth's central
land mass. Indonesia consists of numerous small islands, the principle ones
amongst them being Java, Sumatra, Borneo and Saibil, all of which are well
known. It is the largest country in the world, with 180 million inhabitants.
The number of non-Muslims here is negligible.

As soon as dawn breaks on the eastern side of Saibil, at approximately 5:30
am local time, Fajar Adhan begins. Thousands of Muazzins in eastern
Indonesia commence proclaiming the Tawheed (oneness) of the Almighty,
Omnipotent and Omniscient Allah and Risaalat (Universal Apostleship) of the
Prophet Muhammad .

The process then continues and advances towards the Western Islands of
Indonesia. The time difference between the eastern and western islands of
Indonesia is one and a half hours. So one and a half hours after the Adhan
has been completed in Saibil, it echoes in Jakarta on Java island. Sumatra
then follows suit.

Before this auspicious process of calling Adhan ends in Indonesia, it has
already begun in Malaysia. Burma is next in line, and within an hour of its
commencement in Jakarta, it reaches Dacca, the capital city of Bangladesh.
No sooner the calling of Adhan ends in Bangladesh, it has already prevailed
in western India, from Calcutta to Srinagar. It then advances towards Bombay
and the environment of entire India resounds with this august proclamation.

Srinagar and Sialkot (a city in north Pakistan) have the same timing for
Adhan. The time difference between Sialkot, Kota, Karachi and Gowadar (a
city in Baluchistan, a province of Pakistan) is forty minutes, and within
this time, Fajar Adhan is heard throughout Pakistan. Before it ends there,
however, it has already begun in Afghanistan and Muscat.

The time difference between Muscat and Baghdad is one hour. Adhan resounds
during this one hour In the environments of Hijaaz-e-Muqaddas (Holy cities
of Makkah and Madinah), Yemen, United Arab Emirates, Kuwait and Iraq.

The time difference between Baghdad and Alexandria in Egypt is again one
hour. Adhan continues to resound in Syria, Egypt, Somalia and Sudan during
this hour. Alexandria and Istanbul are situated on the same geographical
longitude. The time difference between eastern and western Turkey is one and
a half hours, and during this time it is echoed with the call to prayer.

Alexandria and Tripoli (capital of Libya) are located at a hour difference
from one another. The process of calling Adhan thus continues throughout the
whole of Africa. Therefore, the proclamation of the Oneness of Allah and the
Prophethood of Muhammad that had begun in the eastern islands of Indonesia
reaches the Eastern Shore of the Atlantic ocean after nine and a half hours.

Prior to the Adhan reaching the shores of the Atlantic, the process of Zohar
Adhan has already commenced in eastern Indonesia, and before it reaches
Dacca, Asar Adhan has started. This has hardly reached Jakarta one and half
hours later. Then the time of Maghrib becomes due, and no sooner has Maghrib
time reached Sumatra, then the time for calling Isha Adhan has commenced in
Saibil!

When the Muezzins of Indonesia are calling out Fajar Adhan, the Muezzins in
Africa are calling out the Adhan for Isha.

There is not a single moment when few thousands if not hundreds of thousands
of Muezzins around the world are not proclaiming the Oneness of Almighty
Allah and the Apostleship of the noble Prophet on the surface of this earth!

Insha Allah this universal and continuous calling of the Adhan shall not
cease until the Day of the Judgment.
