"Allahu Akbar (Allah is the Greatest) / Ashhadu anna ilaha ill Allah (I testify that there is no God but Allah) / Ashhadu anna Muhammadan rasul Allah (I testify that Mohammad is God's Prophet) / Hayya alas salah (Come to prayer) / Hayya alal falah (Come to success) / Allahu Akbar (Allah is the Greatest) / La illaha ill Allah (There is no God but Allah)."

THIS call of prayer or adhan after sunset from the masjid signals that Muslims can already break their fast. Whenever the blessed month of Ramadhan arrives, the architecture and spaces change, reinvigorating Muslim neighborhoods here in the Philippines, most especially in the Bangsamoro region.
