Hamtramck Mosques Will Start Call to prayer Friday 1:30

Obviously, if the Muslims say they won't do it at night or early in the morning, the daytime "call to prayer" is unnecessary.

Do we know what they are saying?? Are they setting us up?? Kinda funny about the timing of this.

[Arpege92]

Can these MUSLIMES get away with this?

[TomGuy]

That title could be misleading.

From a thread last nite, a petition with enough signatures was presented to the council that stopped the prayer call, (IIRC), until it is voted on by the citizens.

[ElisabethInCincy]

Yes this is after the council meeting If u read. They will still do it """Even though the ordinance is in limbo, the Al-Islah mosque's leaders said Tuesday night they will begin broadcasting the call to prayer in Arabic at 1:30 p.m. Friday"""" The audacity of muslims!!

[Celtic Conservative]

wouldn't it be horrible if somebody at the same time , say played some music REALLY loud . Something like the clashes "rock the casbah", or perhaps some Wagner. Yeah, that would be HORRIBLE. Not that I'm suggesting that , Oh no.....

That thread is here...

Masud Khan, secretary of the Al-Islah Islamic Center, said the mosque has a constitutional right to broadcast the call to prayer, adding that it is already being done in Detroit and Dearborn.

"If Detroit can do it, why can't we?" he asked. "We have religious freedom. We can express our religion."

Muslims are so full of freedom of religion...

Saudi Arabia - Conversion by a Muslim to another religion is punishable by death. Bibles are illegal. Churches are illegal.

Yemen - Bans proselytizing by non-Muslims and forbids conversions. The Government does not allow the building of new non-Muslim places of worship.

Kuwait - Registration and licensing of religious groups. Members of religions not sanctioned in the Koran may not build places of worship. Prohibits organized religious education for religions other than Islam.

Egypt -Islam is the official state religion and primary source of legislation. Accordingly, religious practices that conflict with Islamic law are prohibited. Muslims may face legal problems if they convert to another faith. Requires non-Muslims to obtain what is now a presidential decree to build a place of worship.

Algeria - The law prohibits public assembly for purposes of practicing a faith other than Islam. Non-Islamic proselytizing is illegal, and the Government restricts the importation of non-Islamic literature for distribution.

Jordan - Has the death penalty for any Muslim selling land to a Jew.

Yeah, ANY churches in the area should play "Amazing Grace" and/or other old hymns as a "call to faith & prayer" to all Christians in the area five times a day too. I'm serious.

[Diva Betsy Ross]

Perhaps we need to start calling in as well... A little pressure never hurt a city council member.

[17th Miss Regt]

I was thinking something similar. How about this? Form a religion that holds pigs and monkeys to be sacred (like temple cats). Then record their screeches as 'sacred sounds'. Play it LOUD when you call your co-religionists to prayer, say, about five times a day. Pick the times at random, perhaps, but since the town will already be noisy, you can play it at the same time as the imam's call, thereby minimizing noise pollution.

Or buy the lot next door and set up a pork barbecue joint.

"The petition actually rescinds whatever control we might have had," Majewski said. "I don't see the logic in that."

The logic is by removing you from control, the people who don't want to have to listen to these heathens won't have to.

They'll probably have marginally more problems with the "locals" when they want to start expressing their "religious freedom" with regularly-scheduled public beheadings, but they'll eventually get favorable ordinances passed. Donchya just LOVE multi-culti? I'm not sure who I despise more, freaking raghead bastards or the willing, idiotic lapdogs who accomodate them. Curses on them all.

No, you don't.

Or test the civil defense sirens ;-)

Maybe the Fed. Govt. should buy beepers for the muslim congregants and the Mosque could just beep them at the right time for the call to prayer.
It would be a lot quieter and be right up to the state of the art in communications.
From a People subjugated since the dawn of time they sure know their rights in the good ol' U.S.A. in jig time.

[Arpege92]

These Council members NEED TO GO!

[Cronos]

AMERICASTAN?

Nah, they can go to WalMart and buy an alarm clock.

The problem is...islam is not a religion. In order to qualify as a religion, a group of beliefs must direct believers to the highest, most noble instincts of mankind.

Islam is a hateful cult IMO. It will be interesting to see how long it takes the world to come to this reality.
