      Dlaczego traciłam czas, czytając niepotrzebne książki czy kupując na bazarze ładne ubrania? Dlaczego nie przyszłam tutaj, choć meczet był tak blisko? I codziennie dobiegał mnie czysty głos śpiewający adhan z minaretu? Dlaczego?
      Why was I wasting my time reading unnecessary books or buying nice clothes at the bazaar? Why didn't I come here even though the mosque was so close? And every day I heard a clear voice singing adhan from the minaret? Why?

      He checks if the microphone is on, and when the clock on the wall shows the right time, he turns his face towards Mecca and starts singing an adhan, which echoes throughout the Old Town.
