The Call

The call to prayer at mosques happens five times a day.  I read in one article about there being 827 muezzins (the men doing the prayer call) in Cairo, but I'm not sure if that is still the case because I read a more recent article discussing a plan for a unified prayer.  See article from the International Herald Tribune found at this link:

Here is a YouTube video I found on this topic.

If you'd like to hear what one call prayer sounds like, here's a link from one of my prior posts that has YouTube video taken during prayer call:
