Freedom of Religion in Riverlea

"The call to prayer (Athaan) is called out from the Mosque`s five times a day, summoning Muslims for mandatory prayers (Salah)." But of course - no-one would disagree with this requirement for the fulfillment of our Salaah on time.

I do believe the method used is under fire, not the Adhaan, per se.

Blasting the neighbourhood with speaker systems is a lot over the top, irrespective of what comes out of the speakers.

Sadly, Muslims are being stirred into a frenzy by disingenuous public figures (so called leaders) who have not and maybe will not expound on the above quote off the call to sign the petition.

With social media, smart 'phones, watches, etc., the Adhaan from the Minarah has become a necessary formality, with reminders from other sources more important as Salaah markers.

To all engaged in the Ramadaan fasting, have a good one!
