On a visit to the Sultan Hassan Mosque before Friday afternoon prayer, the Muadhin offered to sing the call to prayer for us. Below is a recording of him and a photo of the Cairo city-scape from Al-Azhar Park. On the night that I took this photo, mosques around the city were blasting recitations of Qur'anic passages from sundown till sunrise.
Below is a photo of Sultan Hassan Mosque and my classmate, former Forbes and ABC News journalist, Stephanie Dahle. You can see her blog here: http://stephaniedahle.com/
