Muslims in Sweden have applied for permission to broadcast the call to prayer, claiming the move would boost community self-esteem and assist with integration. The Växjö Muslim Foundation submitted an application to the police requesting permission to send out a three-minute Islamic call to prayer each Friday from a loudspeaker attached to the front of a mosque in the citys Araby district.
We are just wanting Sweden to allow Muslims in Växjö to feel even more at home. The Islamic community should be proud of their culture, and not feel like they have to hide, said Imam Ismail Abu Helal.
The imam told Smålandsposten he believes allowing the call to prayer could have a positive effect on the city, and that it would help enable Muslims to better integrate into Araby, a district in which already by 2008, 58 per cent of residents were recorded to have had foreign backgrounds.
I think that [allowing the call to prayer] is good for integration, and it will provide confirmation of religious freedom, said Abu Helal. Muslims are not visitors in Växjö, we live here.
Acknowledging there might be mixed reactions at first, if the mosque gets approval to broadcast the Islamic call to prayer, he told the newspaper: Everything new creates anxiety, but in the long run it will be fine.
The application, in which Växjö Muslim Foundation likened the call to prayer to church bells, has been passed on to the Environmental and Health Protection Office to assess how it would affect people living in the mosques vicinity.

Their noise
limit the decibel limit and no problem.
The real problem is that they need to screen the clergy: are they preaching Islam or are they teaching terror?\
no it’s not the same thing: The dirty little secret of the Saudis is that they donated to build mosques all over the world, and staffed them with radical types to “reteach” the easy going local Muslims that Islam includes jihad against non Muslims.
Oh c’mon, LadyDoc.
Islam IS terror.
Oh, yes, you are!!
Islam is incompatible with western civilization.
-v-v-v-v-v-v-v-
Actually, it’slime is incompatible with any CIVILIZATION.
Islam is a war plan.
We were paying for it with every tank of gasoline. :(
This us another way the hate-filled savages lord it over those they invaded.
The Islamics have no culture of their own so they invade other cultures and force themselves on others.
Sweden must understand this is thuggery’s demonstration of “triumphalism.

Translation: We are not going to assimilate. Period. Get used to it for in a few years you will be in the decided minority under Sharia law. Its our country now.
Well THERE'S your problem!
This scum needs to cleared out of there. This not assimilation. Assimilation is immigrants assuming the prevailing culture of the host country. Not vice versa. Islam is a disease.
Hard to see any men in Sweden resisting this, considering they don’t seem to give a crap about what’s happening to their women there.
Assist with integration? Lol! Lol! They must think Swedes are the dumbest folks on the planet. The very idea of integration is assimilation. They’re taking over.
No, you are not visitors. You are parasites.
No, you are not visitors. You are parasites.
What?????
Do you really think that islam and its adherents are the anti christ personified?????
Or, as he really meant: "We'll beat you over the head with it until you learn to accept it."
Islam is a pox, a cancer, a filth that should be carved out and discarded.
Society does not need islam...period.
I was in Malaysia on business. Suffering from jet lag I went out on the balcony of my hotel to sit at 5:00AM. Up the hill through the silence came the sound of the call to prayer. The only response you could hear was the sound of dogs howling all over town. I had to laugh.
Demand all you want...NO!
Petulant child.
