ADHAN (The call for salaah)
When the worshiper has performed his ablution and is ready for salaah, when the time of salaah arrives, it is acting in accordance to the traditions of Prophet Muhammad PBUH, to say the call to salaah (adhan).
1. Adhan is Sunnah, only for the five Fardh salaah and for the Jumu'ah salaah (Friday mid-day salaah)
2. Adhan means to inform, but in Shari'ah Adhan means to inform of a particular salaah in particular wordings.
3. The Adhan for every Fardh salaah should be called out on its prescribed time.
4. If it was called before the time then it must be called again at the correct time.
HOW TO CALL OUT ADHAN
When the time for salaah arrives, the Mu'adh-dhin stands up and calls out aloud these words:
ALLAHU AKBAR - ALLAHU AKBAR
ALLAHU AKBAR - ALLAHU AKBAR
ASH HADU AL-LAA ILAHA ILLAL-LAH
ASH HADU AL-LAA ILAHA ILLAL-LAH
ASH HADU ANNA MUHAMMADAR RASULLUL-LAH
ASH HADU ANNA MUHAMMADAR RASULLUL-LAH
HAYYA `ALAS-SALAAH -HAYYA `ALAS-SALAAH
HAYYA `ALAL FALAA - HAYYA `ALAL FALAA
ALLAHU AKBAR - ALLAHU AKBAR
LAA ILAAHA ILLAL-LAAH
Allah is the Greatest - Allah is the Greatest,
Allah is the Greatest - Allah is the Greatest.
I Testify that none is worthy of worship except Allah
I Testify that none is worthy of worship except Allah
I Testify that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah
I Testify that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah
Come to Prayer. Come to Prayer
Come to success. Come to success.
Allah is the Greatest, Allah is the Greatest.
There is none worthy of worship besides Allah.

'INA-NAKA LA TUKHLIFUL-MI`AD. O Allah ! Lord of this complete supplication and of everlasting prayer, make Muhammad our means to reach thee and give him preference.
There are 7 important acts in Adhan
1. To stand facing the Qiblah.
2. Not to make haste in saying Adhan.
3. To put both Index fingers in the ears.
4. To call Adhan from a high place.
5. To say Adhan in a loud voice.
6. Turn the face right when saying HAYYA ALA FALAAH and to the left when saying HAYYA ALAL FALAAH.
7. To say ASSALATU KHAIRUM MINANUWM twice after HAYYA ALAL FALAAH in the Adhan of Fajr salaah.
Entrance into salaah (Iqamah)
After the adhan, the worshipers get ready for salaah. They initiate the salaah itself with an announcement called Iqamah. The phrases used are the same as in the adhan, given above, with two differences: (a) the Iqamah is said faster and less loudly; and (b) right after HAYYA ALAL FALA is said twice:
QAD QAAMATIS-SALAAH
Then
HAYYA `ALAS-SALAH
HAYYA `ALAL FALA
AS-SALATU KHAYRUM-MINAN-NAWM
HAYYA `ALAL FALA
HAYYA `ALAL FALA
Salaah is about to begin
Allahu Akbar - Allahu Akbar Laailaaha Illallaah of the adhan should follow to the end as before.

∙ 8y agoThe Adhan or Muezzin is the caller to the congregation. Nobody calls him, unless he fails at his job. It is the responsibility of the Adhan to either calculate the proper solar positions or to find somebody who has already calculated them in order to call the Muslim community at the proper time.

What is the qadha salaah in Islam?
THE QADHA SALAAHAny salaah performed in it's time is called adaa.Fardh and Wajib salaah performed after it's time has expired will be called qadha. e.g. If Asr salaah is performed at Maghrib time, it will be qadha.To delay any Fardh, Wajib or Sunnatul Mu-akkadah salaah intentionally and cause them to become qadha is very sinful.It is compulsory upon every Muslim to perform the missed number of Fardh and Wajib salaah since the time one has become baligh. (reached the age of puberty).If a person has missed less than six salaah and no other salaah besides these are qadha, then before beginning the performance of the sixth salaah in it's time, qadha of the missed number of salaah will have to be performed in order. E.g. If a person has missed the Fajr, Zuhr and Asr salaah and no other salaah besides these are qadha and the time of Maghrib has begun, in this case first the Fajr, Zuhr and Asr must be performed in order and thereafter the Maghrib salaah should be performed.For a person who has missed more than five salaah, it is not necessary upon him to perform the qadha salaah in order.He may perform the adaa salaah first and then the qadha salaah.The niyyah of qadha salaahWhen making the niyyah for qadha, it is necessary to make niyyah for the particular salaah missed.If one has missed a number of salaah, then one should make niyyah thus: "I am performing such and such day's Fajr or Zuhr".If a person has missed more than one Fajr or Zuhr, it will not be sufficient to say: "I am performing qadha for Fajr or Zuhr". One should say: "I am performing such and such day's Fajr"."Oh Allah! I am performing the first Fajr or the first Zuhr, Fardh from those which I have missed".Continue doing this until satisfied that all the missed number of salaah are performed.
