Islamic Prayer Iqamah (Iqämah/Iqama)

Islamic Prayer Iqamah
After the Adhan; when the muslims are assembled at the place of worship, a second call (iqamah) is recited by one of the group. This signals the start of the congregational salah. It is similar to adhan except that it is recited faster but in a lower tone. 
Here are the words to the iqama:
اللهُ اكْبَرُ اللهُ اكْبَرْ
 Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar
God is Great, God is Great
اَشْهَدُ اَن لَّا اِلَه اِلَّا لله اَشْهَدُ اَنَّ مُحَمَدًا رَّسُولُ الله
Ash-hadu allaa illaha ilAllah, - Ash-hadu anna Muhammadar Rasul-Allah
I bear witness that there is no God But Allah, - I bear witness that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah

حَيَّ عَلَى الصَّلَاةِ حَيَّ عَلَى الْفَلَاحِ
Hayya ‘alas salaah , - Hayya ‘alal falaah
Come to the prayer, - Come to the Success
قَدْ قَامَتِ الصَّلَاةُ قَدْ قَامَتِ الصَّلَاةُ
 Qad qaamatis salaah, - Qad qaamatis salaah
The prayer is being established, - the prayer is being established 
اللهُ اكْبَرُ اللهُ اكْبَرْ
Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar
God is Great, God is Great

لَا اِلَهَ اِلَّا الله
La illaha il-Allah
There is no God But Allah

Islamic Adhan or Azan (The Prayer Time reminder)

بِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمنِ الرَّحِيمِ In the Name of Allah, The Most Merciful, The Most Kind Islamic Adhan or Azan The Adhan (the call to prayer) and the Iqama are called in cities all around the world. In almost every part of the Muslim world, every Muslim – whether a local or foreigner – can easily recognize the call to prayer because of its existing universal standardisation. So even if it is not fully understood by all the listeners, it gives a universal recognition and standardisation to its words. At the appointed time, 5 times daily in each of the millions of mosques now established all over the world, a Muslim will climb to the highest point available and call in a beautiful voice to announce to the world that it is now the time for prayer. The Muezzin (caller) stands facing the Qibla, and raising his hands to his ers delivers the Adhan in a loud voice which is slow, distinct and understandble. Whether in a masjid or an open place, where two or more people are gat...
