Muslim call to prayer to sound at Duke University

Durham, N.C. — A weekly call to prayer for Muslims will be heard at Duke University starting Friday, school officials said.

Members of the Duke Muslim Students Association will chant the call, known as adhan or azan, from the Duke Chapel bell tower each Friday at 1 p.m. The call to prayer will last about three minutes and be “moderately amplified,” officials said in a statement Tuesday.

“The adhan is the call to prayer that brings Muslims back to their purpose in life, which is to worship God, and serves as a reminder to serve our brothers and sisters in humanity,” said Imam Adeel Zeb, Muslim chaplain at Duke. “The collective Muslim community is truly grateful and excited about Duke’s intentionality toward religious and cultural diversity.”

No. Muslim feeling and needs are so much more important.

RE: “...The students need to play Sousa Marches at full volume when the camel jockey anthem plays. ...”

If this were 1940s or 1950s American youth,. I’d say you’d have a good chance of that happening.

However, this is “culturally-enlightened”, “Politically-Corrected”, “sensitive and tolerant” American youth who have been taught that everything “American” - and Causcasian - is bad, awful, sexist, intolerant, bigoted, prejudiced, racist, etc., etc.,

Basically, they’ve been brainwashed to bow down, where our ancestors were taught to stand and fight.

Ever wonder why people that claim to worship Yehova, attempt to do so in buildings covered with his adversary’s phallic symbols?

Good thot-—I could see cranking up “The Halls of Montezuma-—” about that time. Maybe even saluting a US flag just to put a sharp point on it-——Semper Fi

If I attended Duke, I would "feel" offended if they didn't play other music or calls for Christians, Jews, Hindus, Buddhists, et al.

Apparently, some now have the right not to be offended. Poor them and their whittle "feelings". Frig them all!

Gee, thanks, United Methodist Church, for allowing Duke University to slip out of your hands because of your unrepentant leftism that has denuded your pews and emptied your offering plates. And now, offering up your chapel to desecration... what could possibly go wrong?

Continuous slaps to the face of mainstream and Conservative Americans designed to create outrage until it boils over into violence.
