namaz is the Muslim prayer,every devout Muslim is supposed to perform 'namaz'five times a day at prescribed times.praying in a group in a mosque is considered best,but namaz can also be performed at home or wherever you happen to be at the prescribed time.The moazzin calls the faithful for namaz at the mosque,by reciting a loud call,often referred to as a plaintive call,this call to prayer is referred to as 'azan',
