"Mosque music," a term for music associated with mainstream religion in Turkey, includes "azan" (call-to-prayer), "Kur'an-ı Kerim" (Koran recitation), "Mevlit" (Ascension Poem), and "ilahi" (hymns usually sung in a group, often outside a mosque). On musical grounds, mosque music in large urban areas often resembles classical Turkish music in its learned use of makam and poetry, e.g., a Mevlit sung at Sultan Ahmet mosque in Istanbul. Dervish/Sufi music is rarely associated with a mosque. Kâni Karaca was a leading performer of mosque music in recent times.
