Press Release Summary = Islam meets Web 2.0
Free RSS feeds with Muslim Prayer Time are now available.

Press Release Body = The modern muslims are getting used to using a religious
software and information services (e.g. sms) to get a right time for prayer (salat),
that is regarded as an important part of muslim's life. Now at the very start of RSS
boom Muslim community got the access to Muslim Prayer Time (Azan) RSS feeds for PCs,
mobiles and other devices from Pray In Time Information center
(www.pray-in-time.org).
Accurate calculations of muslim prayer times for every location is a non-trivial
task, because the time of prayer depends on the sunrise and sunset times and
geographical location. The sunset and sunrise is different in different locations
and change throughout a year. Historically, prayer timing was determined by Islamic
religious scholars and the prayers were informed about start of a prayer by the
muezzin from a minaret.
Now in the most of modern cities there it is difficult for muslims to hear an adhan
(call to prayer) that makes alternative way of informing prayers about prayer
timetable more and more important.
One possibility is to use Azan Islamic software for mobile and PCs, sms azan
services that created a market for religious software developers. With the start RSS
era this service became available globally for free. It only requires an RSS reader
(such as IE 7.0) and hence can run on virtually any PC, PDA, cell phone and any
other computer device. The prayer should just visit the Pray In Time information
center's web site: www.pray-in-time.org, select the necessary location and
subscribe to this free namaz time service RSS. At the moment more than 6 millions
inhabited locations are covered and the number is growing.
