Di sini saya forwardkan satu artikel untuk renungan kita bersama. Sila sampaikan kepada rakan-rakan kita yang lain. Sekian, Wassalam. Kebesaran hanyalah milik Allah. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ASSALAAMU'ALAIKUM .... An interesting article about Azaan.... -------------------------------------- AZAAN: An incredible medium for the proclamation of Tawheed of the Almighty ALLAH ta'ala and Risalat of Prophet Muhammad sall Allahualayhi wassallam the sound of which echoes around the globe. Amazing though 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 [a Muslim country right on the eastern side of the earth's central land mass. Indonesia consists of many numerous islands, the principle ones being Java, Sumatra, Borneo and Celebes, all of which are well known. It is the largest Muslim country in the world with 180 million inhabitants. As soon as dawn breaks on the eastern island of Celebes, at approximately 5.30 am local time, Fajr Azaan begins. Thousands of Mu'azzins in eastern Indonesia commence proclaiming the Tawheed [Oneness] of the Almighty, Omnipotent and Omniscient ALLAH ta'ala and Risalat [Universal Apostleship] of the Holy Prophet Muhammad sall Allahu alayhi wassallam. 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. Hence, one and a half hours after the echoes has been completed in Celebes, it echoes in Jakarta and Java island. Sumatra then follows suit and before this auspicious process of calling Azan ends in Indonesia, it has already begun in Malaysia. Burma is then next in line, and within an hour of its commencement in Jakarta, it reaches Dacca, the capital of Bangladesh. No sooner the calling of Azaan ends in Bangladesh, it has already prevailed in western India, from Calcutta to Luknow. It then advances towards to Bombay and the environment of entire India resounds with this glorious proclamation. Srinagar and Sialkot [a city in north Pakistan] have the same timing for Azaan. The difference between Sialkot, Kota, Karachi and Gowadar [a city in Baluchistan, a province of Pakistan] is forty minutes, and within this time, Fajr Azan is heard throughout Pakistan. Before it ends in Pakistan, 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 environments of Hijaz-e-Muquaddas, Yemen, United Arab Emirates, Kuwait and Iraq. The time difference between Baghdad and Alexandra in Egypt is again one hour. Azaan continues to resound in Syria, Jordan Saudi Arabia, Somalia and Sudan during this hour. Alexandria and Istanbul [the principal city of Turkey] are situated on the same geographical longitude. The time difference between eastern and western Turkey is one and half hours, and during this time it is echoed with the call to prayer. Alexandra and Tripoli [the capital of Libya] are located at an hour's difference from one another. It continues into Algiers, Tunis, Rabat and Marrakech. The process of calling Azan thus continues throughout the whole of Africa. Therefore the proclamation of the Oneness of ALLAH ta'ala and the Apostleship of Prophet Muhammad sall Allahu alayhi wasallam that had begun in the eastern islands of Indonesia reaches the eastern shores of the Atlantic ocean after nine hours. Prior to the Azan eaching the shores of the Atlantic, the process of Zuhr Azan has already commenced in eastern Indonesia, and before it reaches Dacca, Asr Azan has started. This has hardly reached Jakarta, one and a half hours later, then the time for Maghrib becomes due and no sooner has Mahgrib time reached Sumatra, then the time for Isha Azan has commenced in Celebes! When the Mu'azzins of Indonesia are calling out Fajr Azan, the Mu'azzins in Africa are calling out the Azan for Isha. If we ponder over this phenomenon seriously, we can only conclude the amazing fact that thousands, if not hundreds of thousands, of Mu'azzins around the world are always proclaiming the Oneness of Almighty ALLAH ta'ala and the Apostleship of the noble Prophet sall Allahu alayhi wasallam. Insha'ALLAH ta'ala, this universal and continuos calling of the Azaan shall continue until the Day of Judgement. Ameen. All praise be to ALLAH ta'ala.
