This is a clear message for mankind in order that they may be warned thereby, and that they may know that He is only One God, and that those of understanding may take heed (14:52)
Indeed Allah knows, and you know not (16: 74, part)
This is even older, from 2006, and not from inside the masjid, but recorded from the window of one of the old hotels that used to be directly in front of Baab al Umrah, recorded the old fashioned way, using a tape recorder held out of the window, next to some AC units, hence the background noise.
The recording quality is pretty bad, but even through that, it gives an idea of how this Makkah Tahajjud adhaan given by Sheikh Farooq al Hadhraawi was resonating and echoing and reverberating all around, and from above and below. It was beautiful, and for me, the best adhaan I've heard yet.
Sheikh Hadhraawi's tahajjud adhaan always seems to have a special, slow and deep and heartfelt quality to it, though I never heard one exactly like the one from that day again.
Unfortunately, it's missing all the opening takbeers, and most of the following sentence.
