Bells aren’t a problem because they don’t prostlytise. Many hymns are even written to other tunes. Green Sleaves comes to mind. But the Muslim call to paryer states that there is no god but allah.

That's an excellent point.

Exactly, the bells also do not proclaim blasphemy across the neighborhood.

TRANSLATION OF THE
CALL TO PRAYER

God is most great. God is most great.
God is most great. God is most great.
I testify that there is no God except God.
I testify that there is no God except God.
I testify that Muhammad is the messenger of God.
I testify that Muhammad is the messenger of God.
Come to prayer! Come to prayer!
Come to success! Come to success!
God is most great. God is most great.
There is none worthy of worship except God.

This will be interesting as Miami Beach from the 1930’s on to today has been almost totally Jewish and UM had at one time (maybe still) a very heavy percentage of Jewish students. How are they taking all this.

It is also interesting in that city bell towers all around the US and England have been forced to cease playing religious hymns at noontime.

What's going on??
