Stop religious loudspeakers
A few days ago, while going for Tarawih prayers, I complained about the loud volume of loudspeakers at a nearby mosque. I thought they would take it seriously, and will turn the volume of speakers down, but I was totally wrong. As we are all aware, high volumes of speakers can annoy to those who are living near the mosque and I am one of them. They might say the speakers are serving Islam by dragging people who are not aware of actual time towards mosques.

Rwanda bans Kigali mosques from using loudspeakers
The loudspeakers do create disturbance. They create noise pollution that can be avoided. They disturb the sick and elderlies. But it should be done for all the religious places if it needs to be done. Some cities have independently banned or restricted the use of loudspeakers by mosques, including Lagos, Nigeria, and some communities in the US state of Michigan.
Is loudspeaker allowed in mosque? The Karnataka State Board of Auqaf has issued a circular to all the mosques and dargahs mausoleums in the state not to use loudspeakers between 10 pm and 6 am. The Karnataka State Board of Auqaf has prohibited the use of loudspeakers between 10 pm and 6 am during azaan for all mosques and dargahs in the state.
Do Muslims need loudspeakers? Azaan is intended for Muslims. That it falls on non-Muslim ears is an inadvertence. Its efficacy could be verified by the response it evokes to bring the believers to the mosque. According to the Central Pollution Control Board's CPCB revised penalties, one will have to pay Rs 10, fine in case of noise violation by a loudspeaker or a public address system at a public place without permission or during night, and the equipment will also be confiscated.
The petition stated that the Supreme Court has in the year , extensively dealt with the issue and laid down various directions with respect to noise from loudspeakers and vehicular noise. Begun in the time of Muhammad, the tradition of the adhan dates back to the seventh century. One muezzin begins the call, another joins several seconds later from a neighboring mosque, and then another, until the echoing of their diverse voices envelops the entire 83 square mile city.
During the adhan, Muslims should stop and listen. The word adhan itself means "to listen". This is what is said in the adhan; the first phrase is said four times and the rest twice. Ashhadu an la ilaha illa Allah - I bear witness that there is no god except the One God. The Azaan is usually prohibited under city noise bylaws. But about 40 mosques in Edmonton, some in Calgary and at least one in Mississauga, Ont. Muslims also mark Ramadan with almsgiving and spiritual reflection on compassion.
It was the first calling of the adhan within Mecca , Islam's holiest city. Today, in every corner of the world, one can hear the calling of the adhan five times a day in the same manner that Bilal first called the faithful.
Islamic tradition tells us of Bilal's important role. This is one of the important duties in the mosque, as his companions and community rely on him in his call for Muslims to come to pray in congregation. The Imam leads the prayer five times a day. The first muezzin in Islam was Bilal ibn Rabah , a freed slave of Abyssinian heritage. Most Muslim jurists agree that women are NOT allowed to call the Adhan nor lead prayers at the mosque.
Calling the Adhan involves raising the voice and women are not permitted to do so. However, she can call the Adhan at home only if the congregation is all women. Traditionally, dogs are considered haram, or forbidden, in Islam as they are thought of as dirty. But while conservatives advocate complete avoidance, moderates simply say Muslims should not touch the animal's mucous membranes — such as the nose or mouth — which are considered especially impure.
Majority of the scholars of Islam consider all types of shellfish to be halal. They consider all shellfish to be Makruh detestable. Some says ,It was Islam's prophet Mohammed that forbade Muslim men to wear gold jewelry. Because he think gold jewelry is the exclusive articles for women only. Men shouldn't imitate women in order to keep men' masculinity. It is improper to use loudspeakers not only at night but anytime of the day beyond its permissible limit as it is one of the major sources of noise pollution.
They cause maximum problems to the children and the elderly people. They hamper study and sleep. The apex court, the petitioner has pointed, had also directed the Union and the State governments to ensure that noise level at the boundary of the public place, which include religious places, where loudspeaker or public address are used as per law, should not exceed 10 dB A above the ambient noise standards for the Creating noise is considered to be a public nuisance under Section of the Indian Penal Code, For example, if your neighbour plays a sound system at midnight very loudly, then this is a public nuisance.
The punishment for such nuisance is a fine up to Rs. There isn't a current federal law against loud car stereos , but a lot of states and cities have ordinances prohibiting the volume from exceeding certain decibels or at certain times of the day.
Take everyday noise protection care — Wearing high-quality industrial earplugs or ear muffs helps protect your ears and your hearing. While concerts and construction zones are two environments that regularly cause hearing damage, it can happen in any loud work environment around machinery, large vehicles, etc.
According to the various books of pure Islamic jurisprudence, the listener will recite 'Sadaqta wa Bararta' in response to 'Assalatu Khairum Minan Naum' in the Fajr Adhan.

Should loudspeakers be banned at religious places?
Petitioners had contended that the restrictions imposed by the administration are wholly arbitrary and unconstitutional since they did not, in any way, violate the guidelines issued for the containment of the pandemic. U nder no circumstances, sound-amplifying devices can be permitted to be used between KKR Majestic , in which it was held that recital of Azan is an integral part of Islam, subject to reasonable restrictions. According to the petitioners, therefore, reciting of Azan through loudspeakers five times a day is part of religious rights guaranteed under Article 25 of the Constitution of India. Any restriction or prohibition made with regard to recitation of Azan through loudspeakers would have to be declared unconstitutional. The court said the petitioners failed to bring on record or even plead that they sought any such permission for the use of sound-amplifying devices, for a recital of Azan from their respective mosques and, therefore, their use without such permission would be illegal and cannot be accorded approval by the Court. The Court noted that microphones didn't exist at the time of Prophet Muhammad and rather, was a gift of the technological age. Thus it was held that the practice of reciting Azan through microphones was not an essential.

Berlin: Municipal authorities in Germany allowed the call to prayer over loudspeakers for Friday prayers in Cologne, which has a large Muslim community, Anadolu agency reported. The call to prayer, known in Arabic as the Azan or Adhan, will be carried out under a two-year pilot project. The mayor of Cologne, Henriette Reeker, explained that the municipal council made the decision based on requests from the Muslim community in this regard as part of a two-year pilot project. The call to prayer can be raised through loudspeakers within the scope of certain rules.
F rom both religious and practical point of views, there is no justification for using loudspeakers at mosques for azaan recital. An unseemly controversy has been breaking out every now and then for the last few years regarding azaan. Recently, the vice-chancellor of Allahabad University, Sangita Srivastava, complained to the district magistrate that the early morning azaan disturbed her sleep, which affected her productivity at work. When will this forced religiousness end in India.

Community activist Abdur Rahman Rickey Nair has confirmed that a number of Masaajid in Mayfair West have been served notices by the Johannesburg City Council to stop broadcasting the athan or Islamic call to prayer on loudspeakers. It is understood the notices to suspend the athan on loudspeakers emerged about two weeks ago after residents in Mayfair West complained to the noise and pollution department about the noise pollution emanating from a khanqa or gathering in the area. Subsequently in the next few days, the other masjids in Mayfair received these letters and it was brought to my attention. Fortunately, I had met the councilor a day later and I brought it to his attention and he agreed that we put a meeting together with the council officials and find a way to sort this issue out.
There are of course a couple of beautiful moments, but I expected more !!!
