The Adhan - The Islamic Call to Prayer

The adhan is the call given to announce that it is time for a particular obligatory Salah (ritual Prayer). 

Five times a day the adhan is raised from mosques throughout the world. It is a Sunnah (optional duty) that brings its own reward from Allah (God). The person who gives the adhan is called a muadhdhin. 

(The English word “muezzin” is a mispronunciation of the Arabic term.)

(narrative from IslamOnline.net)

 The steps of wudu are:
