Prayers normally can't be heard from outside. Presumably what they mean is the muezzin's call to prayer. Now, it must be remembered that the muezzin, like church bells, comes from a time before alarm clocks. These days no-one needs a muezzin or a bell to tell him when the hour of prayer or a service is approaching. However, at least church bells are rung only when most people are already awake, one day a week. The muezzin, by definition, must call 5 days a day, every day, including dawn. Considering it is now produced by a loud speaker, this is a real imposition.Malcolm Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00672612354161787023noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32538379.post-37057955844275062872015-06-25T07:22:30.476+12:002015-06-25T07:22:30.476+12:00Not even when their blocking the streets with thei...Not even when their blocking the streets with their bowing to mecca?Bird of Paradisenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32538379.post-27015379067009383532015-06-25T06:41:39.358+12:002015-06-25T06:41:39.358+12:00The principle of free speech is that you have a ri...The principle of free speech is that you have a right to argue for your beliefs.
