Powerful Evidence
In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, and Most Merciful.
Powerful Evidence
There is a voice that never stops on earth; it is the call to prayer. It is always proclaiming, whenever a Muslim community exists.
Therefore this sound expands continuously over the earth, because the Islamic attendance covers the world. It's then sounding audibly, from the extreme north in Russia to the extreme south in South Africa, and from the extreme east in Japan to the extreme west in us.
Thus, this voice is a permanent reminder all around the globe all the time, either in the day or in the night. According that the call to prayer lasts approximately fours minutes, while the time difference between each longitude (each degree) is four minutes (1).
So, whenever this call comes to end, in some point of longitude zone on earth, it should begin immediately at the next longitude zone.
In consequence, this call raises both the name of Allah and that of his last Prophet Muhammad (PBUH), five times in the day and the night.
When it's proclaiming, this voice shouts out louder than all creatures' noise. At that moment every living-being listens. Even more, the animals emit strange voices as if they praise Allah, or as if they repeat this call with the caller.
Accordingly, it's quite obviously that the name of Allah, the Lord of the worlds, and the name of his last messenger rise continuously on the whole the earth, without stop.
This sweet voice reminds people all the time to be aware towards their Lord's obligations. It wakes them up at dawn, when they are asleep. On the whole of the day it warns them twice, and leads them off from all preoccupations, when they should be in total clamor. At the sunset, when they finished work, the call sounds again to keep them in touch with their lord, and so at dusk, before bed.
The Purpose of this call is to push mankind to get to know that The Lord of this existence is Allah, who deserves to be worshiped alone. And that his guide on earth is the last messenger Muhammad (PBUH), who was chosen for this cause.
Also, it reminds the worlds that The Greatest in this world is Allah, more than everything, and Muhammad is His Last Messenger, who should be followed.
This call then, rises every time as a good reason, so as that mankind, after (the call), should have no plea against Allah.
This powerful evidence bears witness all the time that Allah is the true God and Muhammad is his messenger.
This call remains the open call of islam to mankind; that they may repent and believe that Allah is the true God, and that Muhammad (PBUH) is His messenger!
