After installing Home Asssistant:

• Install Islamic Prayer Times integration and configure its settings to your desired calculation method.
• Place adhan files in www/adhan (www should be in the same directory as configuration.yaml).
  • Using File Editor addon: navigate to /homeassistant, create www directory, create adhan directory in there, upload adhan files.
• Copy above files to your home assistant config directory.
• Go to Settings -> Automations -> update the automations to use your desired device for playing adhan.

Optional for remote access:

• Setup Dynamic DNS
  • Using DuckDNS addon: create an account/domain on duckdns.org, set domain and token in the addon's config.
• Setup reverse proxy
  • Using NGINX Home Assistant SSL Proxy addon: set the same domain as above in the addon's config.
• Start the above addons (enable start on boot).
