Everyone,
I rather THEY not broadcast their call to prayer. The city said it was equivilent to that of the the bell on a Church that why the ordinance was passed in the first place. I didn't think so. Loud broadcast of something in Arabic in 2 minutes several times a day is not the same as a sound of a bell.
My company even let these people take 2 hours off every Friday to go to their prayer thing. If that isn't a special treatment, I don't know what. I never seent a Christian, Jew, Hindu, or Buddhist making these much noise.
The solution is very simple... have all the church bells start ringing about 30 seconds into their friday prayers. :)
