The muezzin (/m(j)uˈɛzɪn/;[1] Arabic: مُؤَذِّن) is the person who proclaims the call to the daily prayer (ṣalāt) five times a day (Fajr prayer, Zuhr prayer, Asr prayer, Maghrib prayer and Isha prayer) at a mosque from the minaret.[2][3] The muezzin plays an important role in ensuring an accurate prayer schedule for the Muslim community.
