There's a Town Crier in Morocco

For Muslims, being awake before dawn so that they can eat before the fasting begins is hugely important. But how do they wake up so early in Morocco? Well, that's where the "nafar" comes into the picture. This person is essentially the town crier, who makes it their mission to walk through the neighborhood and play a musical horn to wake up those people still sleeping soundly in their beds.

For many Muslims, the sound of the horn is a welcome addition to their morning. Not only does it wake them up, but it's also engrained in Moroccan tradition and has been for years.
