'Azaan...An Amazing Phenomenon'

Amazing as it sounds, but fortunately for the Muslims of the World, it is an established fact.

Have a look at a map of the world, and you will find Indonesia on the Eastern side of the Earth. the major cities of Indonesia are: Java, Sumatra, Borneo and Saibil, as soon as dawn breaks on the eastern side of Saibil, at approximately 5:30 am local time, Fajar Azaan
begins.

Thousands of Muazzins in Indonesia begin reciting the Azaan, the process advances towards Western Indonesia. One-and-a-half hours after the Azaan has been completed in Saibil, it echoes in Jakarta...Sumatra then follows suit and before this auspicious process of calling Azaan ends in Indonesia, it has already begun in Malaysia.

Burma is next in line, and within an hour of its beginning in Jakarta, it reaches Dacca, the capital city of Bangladesh. After Bangladesh, it has already prevailed in Western India, from Calcutta to Srinagar. It then advances towards Bombay and the entire environment of India resounds with this proclamation. Srinagar and Sialkot (a City in Northern Pakistan) have the same timing for Azaan.

The time difference between Sialkot, Quetta, and Karachi is forty minutes, and within this time, Fajar Azaan is heard throughout Pakistan. Before it ends there, it has already begun in Afghanistan and Muscat, the time difference between Muscat and Baghdad is one hour.

Azaan resounds during this one hour in the environment 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, Azaan continues to resound in Syria, Egypt, Somalia and Sudan during this hour.

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 one hour's difference.

The process of calling Azaan thus continues throughout the whole of Africa, therefore, the proclamation of the Tawheed and Risaalat that had begun in Indonesia reaches the shores of the Atlantic Ocean after nine-and-a-half hours.

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

When the Muazzins of Indonesia are calling out Fajar Azaan, the African Muazzins are calling the Azaan for Ishaa.

If we were to ponder over this phenomenon thoughtfully, we would conclude the amazing fact that there is not even a single moment when hundreds-of-thousands of Muazzins around the world are not reciting the Azaan on the surface of this earth.

Even as you read this material right now, you can be sure there are at least thousands of people who are hearing and reciting the Azaan!
