Call to Night Prayer in Ankara,Turkey

[StarsOnESP]

The fact that you got the muezzin on camera is astounding. What a nice change of pace. Thank you!

[Lemmetry1234]

This guys voice is great. Very clean and powerful.

[aoa9293]

The Muslims in the Muslim world should know the beauty that they have. I live in a western country and do not have the privilege that most of my brothers/sisters have which is to listen to this amazing call 5 times in a day. Be grateful for what you have it is one of the most sacred things of this world and you get to listen to it on a daily basis. Going to Turkey in November inshallah, cant wait :)

[TheDarknetlord]

@aoa9293 I always cry when I am here, I miss listening to the adhan so much. It makes my heart very calm and I feel some sort of emotional relief when listening to the adhan.

[TheYozgatclass]

ahhhh en çok ozledigim sey iste bu ; EZAN !!!

[Turkish68AkParti]

MachALLAH ! c magnifique..

çok guzel ozledim vatanimi

[Tube8586]

Peace be upon the müezzin's soul for the sake of his divinely blessed voice.

[killme96]

[Grinder450]

[00thematrix]

@Grinder450 yeah when your in the hell fire after you DIE of course - then you will regret even saying that - remember you wont live forever..........I hope you get guided mate because what is about to come ressurection as mentioned in bible as well as Quran - none can escape - then you will know exactly What Allah is its an arabic word for God so no point in making fun of the creator who created you its pathetic.....i hope you get guided before its too late

[algeriana777]

Allah is greatest from Algeria

[MsLahoussine]

tres beau comme appel a la priere

[maggas69]

What a great inspiring voice.... I am also Christian from Greece but everytime I visit Turkey I find this prayer magical. And I think if there is a God it is one God for every one. Amazing, tesekkurler komsular!

[aporia82]

@TheKap1an arapça kutsal bir dil falan değil, böyle saçmalık duymadım. allah kuran'ı arapça göndermedi. allah arap bir peygamber seçti, kuran da arapça oldu.

[aporia82]

@TheKap1an bir şey olmaz. bak şimdi kuran'ın türkçesi olduğu için ne dediğini anlıyorsun. eskiden olsa arapça ninni gibi dinleyecektin.

[aporia82]

@hellboy88ko ne zararını gördün atatürk'ün ?

[ferial123]

Hello all...i am the same person above that posted a year ago about how i felt about this mans call to prayer. I thank you all that liked it. I am here today to let all my muslim friends, and neighbors know that my Christian people in Iraq were attacked in church by Islamic terrorists at the end of October 2010. I am reaching out to my peace loving muslims to not let these finatics be the representatives of your religion. God be with you all and peace be upon all of us. We are enemies of hate

[mylesbradley1234]

O muhammad rasul rah! la ilaha illa allah! allahu akbar!!!

[aryowailangitoyo97]

from what mosque is this, the minaret is very high!

[aryowailangitoyo97]

this is how you do the real adhan

[TheTurkishBaba]

Mashallah

[hafiidz3]

Turkey should become Islamic, because it holds the banner of Muhammad P.B.U.H.... In end of time Mahdi will claim the banner & sword. I don't understand why you love Attaturk so much.. no offence... You should love the Prophet More...

[aoa9293]

@hafiidz3 Turkey is an Islamic state, jus nt officially. 2 tell u the truth many Trks really dnt care or much less even like Ataturk. But there is a problem here, cos in Turkey there is no Islamic leader or a role model for the Muslims. Yes many Turks do not like Ataturk, but the government and military are tryin to keep his image in the public as a leader of the trks. This is y frm a yung age in skool it is drilled in2 the kids heds dat he is a great figure and shuld be looked up 2.

[hafiidz3]

@aoa9293 correct.. i hate Attaturk because he like the west so much & force his citizen to become western.... Muslim Turks must drill what Prophet Muhammad P.B.U.H do for Islam... start from the younger ones... Yes Ataturk do save Turkey from being invade, but what he didn't realized his mind has been invade by Pro western thinking...

[maryamhuda]

Alahu akbar...

[BY1810]

[nansynan1]

نعم شكرا لكي اخت لانا هنا تتوضح لجميع مكذبي الامورة نانسي كيف استخدم المسلمون نجمة النبي داوود عليهم السلام في تزين المساجد

انظرو جيدا يا من كذبتموني وشتموتموني انظرو جيدا للنجمة كيف تزين الماذنه مالت ع عيونكم

[nansynan1]

غريب ..اول مرة اسمع صوت مؤذن تركي ليس بمستوى الجمال الذي اعرفه واسمعه عنهم ..... صوتي في الاذان اجمل  من صوته

[61TheLaz61]

[Turkishagent]

I wish i was born in Adana, one of the most beautiful cities in Turkey right now, simply cause there's no fake people everyone is so real. Only went there two times.

[jipsieyes]

Haunting sounds from my early childhood (Air Force brat, grew up in Adana, Turkey while my father was stationed at Incirlik in the early to mid 60's). I especially recall standing at our 3rd floor window, just after sunset, with the stars just coming out against the sky, and, trance-like, listening to the muezzin call and thinking it the most wonderfully strange, almost musical sound I'd ever heard (or ever would, actually).

I literally fell asleep (10pm), and woke(6am), to it, as well.

[jeremym0101]

@jipsieyes I myself was stationed in Incirlik for two years. I recently left a year ago and I must say, there is not a day that goes by that I do not miss hearing the call of prayer everyday. By far, the most beautiful sound I have ever heard!

[KeeperOfKeys3R1]

which mosque is this?

[TheTurkishBaba]

i miss my country sooooooooooo much :'((((((((

[KeeperOfKeys3R1]

I miss your country too...

[AHMEDMR1]

very very nice

[ardaeksi]

why doesnt he record the voice on pc and set the times...so it can automaticly play XD noone would notice XD :P:P

[DelightTurkish]

they do this mostly

[comradeharley]

Because to cry out that God is great, that God is the only god, and that victory can only be attained through him alone is a tremendous privilege.

[madhatter536]

sweden is garbage, and go tell him to shut up. For you not to like this, why did you comment 2 days in a row?? Id be afraid of an avalanche if i spoke above a whisper in Sweden. Such a cold disgusting place

[StarkTigerSyd]

Then why are muslims moving to sweden? They come to my country and demands special treatment. For us to give them money, food etc. Then they run around in gangs and beat up people and rape swedish woman. Then demands that the majority in our land shal give up our freedom so they can practice sharia- laws. They murder their own daughters if they want to live as a swedish woman. Leave us alone..dont come here

[Metsada007]

Fuck off piece of shit! Kiss my hairy ass....

[StarkTigerSyd]

Im not getting my face into that jungle hahahahahaha

[HastaPsikolog]

@StarkTigerSyd they go there because in secular countries; like syria, lübnan, turkey etc... policeman dont let extremists to practise their sharia or resque their daughters or wives from their despotic lifestyle. after that they want to run. because of that you met extremists only in europe. müslims dont want extremist people(except iran). for example i live in turkey. there is only kurdish fascists(new pkk), kurdish islamists and kurdish communists(founder of pkk, destroyed) causing problems.

[Salahuddin10001]

@HastaPsikolog

Stop lieing you dog!

[Metsada007]

Sweden is shit, full of worthless disbelievers like you :)

[StarkTigerSyd]

Thats right! So tell your fellow muslims not to come here!!!

Btw Allah is nothing but a "moongod". A demon. You have all been fooled, he`s not God almighty but satan himself.

See dokumentary " The rape of Europe" then you will understand if you are wise! Then you will understand your hate against jews and christians

[Osman0Musliman]

Allah Ekber Allah Ekber!!! Mashallah!!!

[ollecarlsson]

[61TheLaz61]

[kadrab]

[Saladdin65]

Allah is greater, Allah is greater Allah is greater Allah is greater I witness that there is no God but Allah I witness that there is no God but Allah I witness that Mohammad is the messanger of Allah I witness that Mohammad is the messanger of Allah Come to prayer Come to prayer Come to success Come to success Allah is greater Allah is greater There is no God but Allah Typical turkish way of azan. Mashallah. I love it, I miss it so much.

[aamyyxx3]

[SLUguyMadrid]

Worlds shittiest weed but still one hell of a country especially when this girls in it ;)

[aamyyxx3]

[SGTALEC]

[b0grillaz]

im 15 i was there alot during my previous years , when i hear this i feel euphoric , drowsy , and weel bee'ed

[kakkorrot]

amazing

[Ankebut89]

you are annoying.

[Niczalus]

i am Christian.. but this is an exquisite.. delicate and comforting call to prayer.. have always loved it.. :-)

[burakkk55]

işte bu sesler insanları coşturuyor MAAŞALLAH...

[parisaa20014]

i was in turkey during spring break in march and every day i would hear dis sound it woke me up in da morning to :[

[ferial123]

I am a Christian but I would love to wake up to this guy's voice. The turkish are known for their music and the way they sing. Next time you go listen and learn to appreciate.

[alaqsafighter]

they have this around the entire muslim world

wherever you have a mosque the adhaan is recited five times a day

[nurnur88]

@ferial123  Lovely comment...very honored =)

[ferial123]

@nurnur88 Thank you nunur88, I'm thankful my family had me listen to Turkish music since i was a young child. Turkish music has so much emotion in it that it's the only one that has braught tears to my eyes!!! Love it!

[utrujjah]

@ferial123 You should read about Islam. It's a wonderful religion, balanced and not a terrorist religion as promoted by some. Try please, ferial123!

[ferial123]

@utrujjah Thank u utrujjah...I do know about the Islamic religion. And i also know that the general public are influenced by the media. In all religions there are fanatics and I don't allow the few to represent the majority. With education and respect for our differences one day we may be able to live side by side as peaceful neighbours and friends. Hey we all love, laugh, and sleep the same way...I'm just thankful I have been blessed with the appreciation of the middle east. God Bless!!!!!

[Metsada007]

@ferial123 Thanks for the kind words. Translation; Allah is great, Allah is great Allah is great, Allah is great I bear witness there is no deity but Allah I bear witness there is no deity but Allah I bear witness that Muhammad (pbuh) is the Messenger of Allah I bear witness that Muhammad (pbuh) is the Messenger of Allah Hurry to the prayer Hurry to the prayer Hurry to the success Hurry to the success Allah is great, Allah is great There is no deity but Allah

[pigernefradanmark]

@ferial123 Jeg er også Kristen, jeg syntes faktisk at det der er ret uhykkeligt - spookie !!

[maggas69]

@ferial123 uhmmmm well this is arabic not turkish, duh !

[ferial123]

@maggas69 uhmmmmm all Islamic prayer is in Arabic. duh!! But if you ever listen enough to the different regions that do it...example Turkia, there is a diff in the style from location to location.

[ezsarah]

Parisaa20014: its called the ezan, they have it in iran too.

[ArabianKnight1201]

الحمد لله على نعمة الاسلام

[eginlin]

gurbette olpta etkilenmemek elde degil! ezan-i muhammedin degerini bilin canla ! biz guret elde ezana hasret kaldik siz degerini bilin namazi bu güzel ses ile birlikte devam ettirin...

[oxyman10]

Although I am not muslim, I have always loved the Islamic call to prayer since I first heard it many years ago, I find it peaceful and beautiful.

[DelightTurkish]

nice to read from a non muslim thanks

[ferial123]

I too am a Christian, the call to prayer reminds me to pray as well to Allah, praise his name. I love the call to prayer and I listen to it all the time. It is very peaceful and beautiful. You should listen to their Dua. Very emotional.

[benaraby]

very beautiful, turks have good voice

ALLAH bless turks

benaraby from egypt

[40AcreMule]

Mashallah!

[SpadeHand]

*throws boot*

SHADDAP. I'M TRYIN' TO GET SOME SLEEP.

[RealFan]

Do you think you were brought on this Earth to sleep, drink, eat and follow your desires? That is the role of animals, you are a human being. God gave you a conscious and an intellect - use it before it is too late [ie. death overtakes you].

Respond to your Lord before a Day comes from Allah which cannot be turned back. On that Day you will have no hiding-place and no means of denial. (Qur'an 42: 47)

[Oaklio]

It's a joke. Lighten up.

[tarek307]

Must be a foreigner asshole!

[freshouttatime]

[ilovemuslimfood666]

Look! Jewish stars on the balcony! Hypocrite! (just kidding lol)

[nouh220200]

Turkey the land of Islamic Empror

[AsSahabMedia]

Too little beards in Turkey. Take example of Afghanistan land of Islam.

[FinalFantassyyy]

And what is the view of Afghanistan in people's minds when it comes to Europeans?

[anteplimmmm]

why beards?

[waterloo2you]

I like the Türks very much. Most are Muslim, yet I don't no a single Türk who does not drink Raki on occasion. Most seem to keep their secular and their religous lives apart and balanced.

[spioncina]

sorry for this question...

does he call to prayer every night or only particular days of the year?

[40AcreMule]

The Call to Prayer is made five times a day, every day. But perhaps you are asking if this particular muezin (Imam Nurettin Okumus) makes calls only at particular times on particular days. I don't know.

[muslimpower123]

everyday 5 times man

[primavera487]

machaalah.

[Cage71]

The Turkish people are steadfast in their religion, no matter how much pressure there is for a secular society.

[angrywinds]

Lol. Brother, the country is 99% Muslim. DO you actually think this "secular" government would dare do that?

[anteplimmmm]

the population of turkey is 99% muslim.

[amer273]

Al hamdilah, It's nice to see that not all of turks believe in this secular junk. Inshalla one day the sleeping giant will wake up again...

I was used to pray in kocatepe camisi by the way one of the most beautiful in my opinion!!!

[SuperLiz1]

This was part of my life for 2 and 1/2 years when I was 13 to 16. Air Force Brat that I am and it has lived with me ever since. It felt like home to watch & I want to go back. People should live and let live. No fighting, just together as brothers & sisters, united by this human body we inhabit for a short time.

Gee, can we get the Mormon Tabernacle Choir up there and try it out? They sing "Amazing Grace" like no other souls on earth.

[gajda1984]

I'm a macedonian christian but i love turkish music. it brings me to tears.  we say masallah too in macedonia.

[dinmnshi]

what language do you speak?

[gajda1984]

english and macedonian.

[dinmnshi]

I think the reason why you say mashallah is that b/c there are a lot of albaninas there and they say that so you guys got 'mashallah' from them. am i correct or do all the christians in macedonia say that. by the way i'm shqiptar musliman.

[gajda1984]

no. macedonians have said "masalah" forever. it's part of the cultural heritage of the Balkans as well as the middle east. Macedonia has been under the ottoman empire for more than 500 years. middle eastern customs are part of the Balkan heritage.
