Playing Azan on Google/Nest Home/Mini using Home Assistant

Introduction

These configurations can be used to configure playing Azan on your Google Home / Mini Smart Speakers

Pre-requisits

The following needs to be already setup before proceeding with this setup:

  • Home Assistant
  • Google Home / Mini or Nest Home / Mini already setup

Steps

Step - 1: In the configuration.yaml, please add the following: (Please add Asr and Isha accordingly)

### Input slider to control speaker volume ###
input_number:
  azan_volume_maghrib:
    name: "Azan Volume Maghrib"
    initial: 0.8
    min: 0
    max: 1
    step: 0.01
    icon: mdi:volume-high

  azan_volume_fajr:
    name: "Azan Volume Fajr"
    initial: 0.01
    min: 0
    max: 1
    step: 0.01
    icon: mdi:volume-high

  azan_volume_zuhr:
    name: "Azan Volume Zuhar"
    initial: 0.8
    min: 0
    max: 1
    step: 0.01
    icon: mdi:volume-high

# It is recommended to put your automation in an external file `automations.yaml`.
automation: !include automations.yaml

# It is recommended to put your sensors in an exteranl file `sensors.yaml`. 
sensor: !include sensors.yaml


### Input select to select Azan file to play ###
input_select: !include input_select.yaml

Step-2: Create sensors.yaml and add the following to it.

I am using api.aladhan.com to get the updated timings (updated every 3000 seconds - This can be increased to 24hours as the times won't change frequently).

Note a few things:

  1. Change the method accoding to your school of fiqh. I have set it to 0 - Shia Ithna-Ansari
  2. Change the logitute and latitude based on your location
  3. Change the midnightMode accordingy. I have set it to 1 for Jafari (Mid Sunset to Fajr)

For complete API documentation, please refer here: https://aladhan.com/prayer-times-api#GetTimings

    midnight:
      friendly_name: Midnight Time
      value_template: '{{ states.sensor.prayer_times.attributes["data"]["timings"]["Midnight"] }}'

Step-3: Create input_select.yaml and add the following yaml to it. (Please add Asr and Isha accordingly to it)

These inputs will be available to use in your UI.

Note:

  1. place the Azan MP3 file under `www/azan1.mp3
  2. If you would like to have multiple options, to select which Azan to be played at what time, you and add. I have added three azans as follows:
  • www/azan1.mp3
  • www.azan2.mp3
  • www.azan3.mp3
  1. Make sure the options value below has this convention:
"<exact_azan_file_name> - <custom title>"
e.g.
"azan1.mp3 - Abathar"

azan_select_fajr:
  name: Azan Fajr
  options:
      - "azan1.mp3 - Abathar"
      - "azan2.mp3 - Iran"
      - "azan3.mp3 - Iraq Old"
  icon: mdi:bell-rin

azan_select_zuhr:
  name: Azan Zuhr
  options:
      - "azan1.mp3 - Abathar"
      - "azan2.mp3 - Iran"
      - "azan3.mp3 - Iraq Old"
  icon: mdi:bell-rin

azan_select_maghrib:
  name: Azan Maghrib
  options:
      - "azan1.mp3 - Abathar"
      - "azan2.mp3 - Iran"
      - "azan3.mp3 - Iraq Old"
  icon: mdi:bell-rin

Step-4: In the automations.yaml add the following: (Please add Asr and Isha accordingly, accordingly)

Note:

  • Replace the IP address 192.168.2.30 with your RPI IP address where Home Assistant is running
  • Replace the entity_ids with yours accordingly

The Automation accomplishes the following:

  1. Set the Volume of the Smart Speaker, based on the slider value
  2. Play Azan (The Azan is also selected based on the Input Select
  3. Shut-down TV or any media (You can remove that part if not needed)
  4. The Automation runs every 30 second, so there might be a max delay of 30 seconds when it's time for prayers.
