Dearborn, Michigan, Mayor Abdullah Hammoud responded to noise complaints about a mosque's call to prayer, saying it's "not an issue."
Hammoud discussed the concern on the Nov. 3 episode of the "Not From Here" podcast. Local Dearborn citizens have complained in recent months that a nearby mosque has been broadcasting the call to prayer on loudspeakers multiple times a day, beginning as early as 5:30 a.m.
Though residents raised concerns during a September city council meeting, Hammoud insisted that the call to prayer under a certain decibel level is allowed under city ordinances and has been part of Dearborn life for decades.
"I would tell you is, you know, those complaining about the call to prayer, I mean it's a very, very few, you still want to respect the wishes and, if you have a serious concern, I have to uphold the law across all boards," Hammoud said. "But we've done decibel readings at these mosques, all within threshold, all within legal limit. And so for me, it's not an issue."

I’m with you on this one.
“The residents voted them into office, don’t blame anyone but yourselves. Suckers.”
The soft underbelly of western civilization is exposed.
5:30 AM ain’t right. I’ve heard this compared to church bells, but church bells don’t ring at 5:30.
Pink Floyd 'Pigs' might be a better choice, on loop. I'd loop the entire 'Animals' album.
To my recollection, there are no goats or camels represented, so no love songs.🤣
More like a call to slaughter non-believers...
what is stopping infidels from blasting the call of prayer every 15 minutes then? that should keep them on their knees and not raping anyone.
Someone needs to develop a noise cancelling device or tech gizmo specifically for the call to prayer. Set up a bunch of them around the mosque and nullify it all.
I tend to agree.
You hear that infidels? Its “not an issue” because islam says its not an issue! Your views dont matter! Submit!
Was in Southeast Asia recently. F-in’ mosque popping up everywhere, even built on to hotels and also slammed right up against the major highways in big cities. Muzzies were constantly slamming on their breaks, jumping out of their cars and running over to pray - right in the middle of the highway. Apparently doing this 5 times a day, causing massive traffic jams. And every time i saw it they started dancing afterwards like they saying “we own you, there is nothing you can do” - if china was going to make a targeted virus, why didn’t they make one that targeted muzzies instead everyone else?
“The Muslim call to prayer is one of the prettiest sounds on Earth at sunset.”

I like church bells on Sunday morning, magic one.
LOL...Camel Jockey Taxi at your service!
If if were church bells being played five times a day starting at 5:30 AM, you can be sure muslims would be raising hell, it would be major news - and they’d get it shut down.
Beepers, short range FM radio, look at a clock, set an alarm on your phone.....

Like a dog pissing on a lamp post, they are marking their territory and dominance.
And the dumb ass voters wanted this to show how enlightened and anti-Trump they are. Idiots.
Why do you think Churches have church bells? Let them ring I say!!
Obviously.
Those will create a one time noise much like a boom then peace and quiet to follow
They are likely out numbered now
The time has passed for voting this problem away
