You can hear the call to prayer (Adhan) nearly everywhere in Qum. We're lucky. We have 2 mosques in our neighbourhood which both play the adhan from their loud speakers. It starts of with a recitation of a few verses from the Qur'an, followed by the 'synchronised singers' and then the call to prayer starts.
There's not really synchronised singers! I just like to call them that. They kinda go like this - "SubhaaaaanAllah, SubhaaaaaaaaaanAllllllllaaaaaah, SubhanAllaaaaaaaaaaah". There's a few of them singing it together and it lasts about 30 secs. Its really cute. And I'm really going to miss it when we leave! Maybe I should record it on my phone.
