The word iqamah or ikamet lang ar refers to the second call to Salat Islamic Prayer , given immediately before the prayer begins. Generally speaking, the iqamah is given more quickly and in a more monotone fashion, as compared to the adhan , as it is addressed to those already in the mosque rather than a reminder for those outside it to go to the mosque. Aside from a difference in the number of times each line is said, the iqama differs from the first call to prayer, the adhan in only one place line 6, below class wikitable Recital Arabic Transliteration Translation 1x lang ar dir rtl Allahu Akbar llahu kbar , llahu kbar God is Greatest, God is Greatest, 1x lang ar dir rtl sh hadu n Shahadah l ilaha ill llah I assert that there is no god but God, 1x lang ar dir rtl sh hadu nna Shahadah m hammad r ras lu llah I assert that Muhammad is the Messenger of God, 1x lang ar dir rtl hayy al s salat Come to prayer, 1x lang ar dir rtl hayy al l fal h Come to worship, 2x lang ar dir rtl qad q ma tis salaat Stand for prayer, 1x lang ar dir rtl llahu kbar, llahu kbar God is Greatest, God is Greatest, 1x lang ar dir rtl l ilaha ill llah There is no god but God According to the Hanafi school of thought, similar to Shia Muslims, the content of the Iqama is the same as the Adhan i.e. the number of times the lines are recited are the same, but with Stand for prayer read twice after Come to salvation .

As a result of later sound shifts, these sounds in Greek changed to IPA p and IPA p respectively. Therefore, Qoppa was transformed into two letters Qoppa, which stood for a number only, and Phi letter Phi which stood for the aspirated sound IPA p that came to be pronounced IPA f in Modern Greek. In the earliest Latin inscriptions, the letters C, K and Q were all used to represent the sounds k and g which were not differentiated in writing . Of these, Q was used to represent k or g before a rounded vowel e.g. EQO ego , K before a , and C elsewhere.

Since the Muslim scholars there were reluctant to lend manuscripts to Lane, the acquisition of materials was commissioned to Ibrahim Al Dasuqi 1811 1883 , a graduate of Al Azhar University Azhar and a teacher in Boulaq . ref Arberry, 109 Irwin, 165 ref In order to collect and collate the materials, Lane stayed in Cairo for seven years, working arduously with little rest and recreation. The acquisition of materials, which took 13 years, ref Arberry, 111 ref was left in the hands of Al Dasuqi when Lane returned to England in 1849.
