Hamtramck,Mich.--Over some residents' objections, the City Council voted unanimously Tuesday night to allow a mosque to send out a call to prayer to Muslims on a loudspeaker....five times a day.

If this doesn't give comfort to the enemy, I don't know what does!!! If you are as apalled and upset over this as I am, please let me know!

[hapy]

what can we do about it?

[ken5050]

Isn't the "call to prayer" actually a recitation of the Islamic religion....as such..isn't it public proselityzing?

[My Favorite Headache]

Garbage.

[KQQL]

Sounds like Allah rules in MI !

[KQQL]

I bet Church bells are banned in the same town.

[janetgreen]

Outrage! The inmates are running the asylum. It doesn't matter what citizens think anymore, political correctness (?) wins again. This isn't America anymore.

[My Favorite Headache]

Lotsa Burkas at the Red Wings game tomorrow night methinks.

[keats5]

What is this call? A dignified bell or chime, a blasting horn, or what?

[Mamzelle]

Hideous yodelling by castrated tom cats. Vile, grating, appalling.

Well I guess the solution is to ring church bells simutaneously during the calls to "prayer" I mean hey if they can do it so can the Christians. Just make it a Christian call to prayer.

It is a person cat wallering thru loud speakers, in Arabic. It goes on for quite some time and is about like a stadium decibel level you might hear during a football game.

The next demand will be for all area merchants to cease operation during the calls to prayer. That's how it works in Islam. Those who don't close up shop, the blinds, park their delivery vans, cease answering phones, abandon the lines at the DMV will find themselves the victims of Islamic violence.

The ACLU is always fighting churchs around the country for ringing their bells. This is not just bells this PRAYING TO ALLAH on loudspeakers! Where are these freeging bastards, and their separation of chrch and state crap! It is always OK to trash Christianity, but we should ALL respect other religions, even the one that preaches violance against us.

During the call, in Arabic the vpice over the loudspeaker says:

O you who belive! When the call is made for prayer...hasten to the remembrance of Allah

[somedaysoon]

It's noise polution at the very least and something that would not be allowed for Christians.

The camel is in the tent up to its rear-end.

CALL TO PRAYER
THE MUEZZIN CALLING THE FAITHFUL TO PRAYER
(An International anthem of over 1000 million Muslims of the world.) The following is a translation of "Call to the Prayer," pronounced five times a day from the minarets of Mosques all over the world:


**Allah is Greatest.
*I bear witness that there is no other object of worship but Allah.
*I bear witness that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah.
*Come to prayer.
*Come to Success.
*Allah is Greatest.
There is no other object of worship but Allah.


* Repeated twice.
** Repeated 4 times.

"There is only one answer and I'll be arrested for advocating it!"

But we all know what it is, and it's only a matter of time.

Islam is a moronic death cult. Blithering idiots who worship murder. We should put a bounty on them.
