The practice of reciting Adhan began in the first two years after [[Hijra]], following the [[redirection of Qibla]] from [[Masjid al-'Aqsa]] to the [[Ka'ba]]. According to [[Imamiyya]] sources, [[the Prophet (s)]] received Adhan by means of divine revelation. Archangel [[Jibra'il]] recited it for the first time during the night of [[Mi'raj]]. When he recited it once again, the [[Prophet (s)]] ordered [[Imam 'Ali (a)]] to teach it to [[Bilal b. Rabah]]. This has also been reported in [[Isma'iliyya]] sources with slight differences.
