Hundreds of millions around the world watched this clip of the muezzin of the Turkish Bursa Mosque, "Ragab Uyar", as he explained the positions of the call to prayer for each prayer.. Today, Rajab passed away and moved from the worldly home to the hereafter.
The Prophet, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, said: “The muezzin is forgiven for the extent of his voice, and all wet and dry will bear witness to him.”
