AIqamah
BTakbir
CAdhan
DTalbiyah

Explanation

– Adhan refers to the call to prayer, announced publicly before each of the five daily obligatory prayers, informing the community that the time for a particular prayer has arrived.
– This practice was established during the early Madani period, with Bilal ibn Rabah (RA) serving as the first person to deliver this call, known for his beautiful and resonant voice.
– For exams, remember that Iqamah refers separately to a similar but shorter call given immediately before the congregational prayer actually begins.
