The best and most correct answer among the choices provided by your question is the third choice or letter C which is "a tower where a crier calls Muslims to pray five times a day."

The minaret then, is a tall, slender tower that is a significant feature of every mosque, and is one of the earliest characteristics of Islamic architecture. It is surrounded by one or more projecting galleries from where the muezzin, the person who chants the call for prayer, announces the prayer to worshippers.
