Toy plane makes sound of Islamic prayer
KING5 Seattle ^ | 12/30/15

Instead of making flying sounds, a children's toy plane's sound effect was an Islamic prayer, according to the president of the Islamic Society of Whatcom County.

It's an issue several WolVol customers have complained about onAmazon.

The toy was a Christmas present given to a Whatcom County 3-year-old.

"We put the batteries in and didn't get what we expected," said Bjorn Thorpe, the boy's uncle. "I do respect other religions, but it's not the right situation to have it on a children's toy."

"This is a prayer you're supposed to say when you're performing Hajj," said Nadeem Israr, president of the Islamic Society of Whatcom County, who explained the sound is a prayer Muslims say during their pilgrimage to Mecca.

The toy company, WolVol, blames its manufacturer, saying the manufacturer must have mistakenly shipped them a bad batch of toys. It pointed to its nearly four-star rating on Amazon, where the family bought the toy.

Thorpe expects Amazon to refund their buy, so they can get his nephew his new Christmas present.

"He just wants a plane," Thorpe said.

KING 5 reached out to Amazon – we haven't heard back.

Would someone film the sound of taking abodacious Obama on the toy, then setting it on fire, then throwing it into a pig pen?

Only the worst for muzzie slime.

We will be coming, butthole lovers.

It only does that as it flies toward a skyscraper.

Do the ones that fly go automatically into buildings?

Ok, so what toy does this company sell that’s supposed to be outfitted with a Muslim prayer? Talking G.I. Jihadi?

So it makes the sound of a bomb exploding?

Obama says the most beautiful sound he’s ever heard is a WolVol F1-G taking off at sunset.
