The Netherlands: Mosque says “get used to it” to citizens who complain about prayer calls
By Michael Lord   19 May 2020

The administrative board of a mosque in Amsterdam has a simple answer to those of their neighbors who are complaining about their calls to prayer being too loud: get used to it.

Residents of the area surrounding the Taibah mosque, which is in Amsterdam’s Zuidoost district near the Kraaiennest metro station, have been complaining that its daily calls to prayer are excessively loud. Islamic law requires that Muslims pray five times per day, and the Taibah mosque has been broadcasting all five daily on its exterior loudspeakers to mark the holy month of Ramadan, which began on April 23.

The mosque’s administrative board confirm that they had installed a new speaker system to broadcast the calls prior to Ramadan. They say that the calls are being sounded five times a day during Ramadan as a result of the ongoing Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) lockdown, which makes it impossible for worshippers to come to the mosque for prayers.

If the Adhan violates local noise ordinances, then the volume should be decreased. The article indicates that the volume was decreased, suggesting that it was done so as to comply with local laws. If it complies with local laws, the same laws applied to churches and other sources of sound, then yes, the neighborhood should simply get used to it. Just as they are used to church bells or buses or trucks or etc..

Turn out the leftist globalists who think they have the right to conduct a undergraduate level social experiment with you as the subject you've put in charge or get used to it.

Europe is lost.  Islam wins.

France will be a majority islam state by 2025.  Dumbest thing I have ever witnessed.

You don't really think Notre Dame burning down was an accident, do you?  That's just the beginning of the destruction they will unleash.
