Allah al akhbar!!!
Our latest asset in the household- an Azan "call to prayer" alarm clock! Tara's generous employer whose kid she is tudoring recently went to Oman. And what better gift to give your kid's teacher than an alarm clock (especially since Joakim is such a heavy sleeper)?
Our version looks just like the one above, except ours is painted in a tasty lime-green shade.
In the morning the clock screams (!!!) out several different chants on the lines of "Allah al akhbar". Yep, after a while you have to agree that he truly is great... great enough to get you out of bed. (You can also set the alarm to call out evening prayers.)
Did somebody mention the word kitsch?
