Athan as the anchor

According to the language, athan (adzan) means to announce something.

Athan as an anchor in the sense that we hear the call to prayer, then bring in earnest intentions to carry out prayers. Growing intention at the present era is not an easy job. Sometimes jobs do not know the time demands that we do the maximum, so that prayer times are often overlooked. A strong intention will be created if there is an anchor in the human soul. What is the purpose of this anchor?

Anchor can be interpreted as a specific stimulus that triggers a set of internal response or action. For example, when we're driving on the highway, and suddenly saw a red traffic light, then we will stop automatically.

Anchor is not a static thing, but it can be formed. Anchor will grow stronger if we always maintain it. How to maintain the intention is to bring up as soon as possible when we hear the call to prayer. If we do the opposite then the anchor will become weakened. To that suggestion planted firmly, tell our souls, "when I heard the call to prayer, it will be soon I will be praying." Tell me this suggestion over and over again so entrenched in our souls.

If we already have a strong anchor will appear intent as strong as steel, which could undermine whatever. Intention was in the unconscious soul. The subconscious soul can control the physical activity without realizing it by the conscious soul, and can express ideas or thoughts that are beyond the reach of conscious perception of the soul. In certain circumstances, the subconscious soul can act independently to express his desire and perform actions not related to the thought processes that occur in the conscious soul.

If we are familiar with the urge to pray after hearing the call to prayer, then our souls will feel the interests of the world hereafter, which is good for the soul.
