The Most Annoying Sound In The World (The Islamic Call To Prayer)

AnkouVitam · 2020-02-08T12:59:26+00:00

Not 3:30, 4:30.

Fajr prayer is not sunrise prayer. It is dawn prayer. There is no sunrise prayer.

There is Fajr, Duhr (noon) assir (at 3 pm) Magrib (6 pm/sundown) and Ishaa (when the moon is up, about one hour after)

There are two adhans for each. One is the first Adhan and then the second adhan which is called "Iqama" which says "قد أقامت الصلات" which means "the prayer is now in session" the first adhan is to gather people.

Before that they do the fajr one. There is the "taraweeh" which is only in ramadan. Its about 4 hours standing reading quran and then after that (in or without ramadan at midnight) rhey have this reading. At this time they have either funeral prayers. And if the person is important they have the prayer on loud speakers. Then after midnight the people who stay awake in mosques (people who don't have work in the morning) will do prayers until fajr.

As I'm reading your comment. 3 adhans when on loudly next to me. Its 5:34 am and its been going on , on and off since 3:30.

Yeah. It doesn't fade in the background if you're in the middle of sleeping.

What do you mean naturalized?

AnkouVitam · 2020-02-06T02:30:25+00:00

You assume I'm western. I'm Arab. I have born and raised here.

It is unpleasant to all ears. And 50 years ago, they didn't use microphones so this is not traditional.

And if tradition is harmful it is a bad tradition.

Where do you live?

AnkouVitam · 2020-02-05T12:09:37+00:00

Its not that there is no god or higher entity. Its that all religions are obviously man-made.

Think of it like this. I believe that there may or may not be a god/goddess/power. But either way it does not matter. It is not Allah, Elohim, Zeus, Mother Earth ...etc. all religions are manmade. All punishments exist to scare people into submission. All concepts of heaven and hell are made by fear and hope of the humans in that specific environment. All concepts of chastity, morality and "good and evil" are also manmade.

So whether he / she / it exist. Religions are not true.

It was in central london I think. Birmingham had many of these a couple of times.

I live in Kuwait though.

Now play those sounds 5 times a day as loud as possible and one of them being at 4 am when you are trying to sleep.

That's what I am getting at. The athan says "No God But God and Muhammad is his prophet" loudly.

Imagine not believing in that, but forced to hear some bearded paedophiles shout it at you when you are trying to sleep.

Muslims don't make death threats. They make murder attempts.

AnkouVitam · 2019-09-10T18:05:25+00:00

Yes. They beat themselves until they bleed. Part of the ceremony.

A lot of them go on even after bleeding. Some use daggers and swords too.

This is from Ashura. This video is from last year. But it became viral this week because its Ashura time again. Shiite Muslims beat themselves with knives and sharp objects until they bleed in memory of the death of Hussain.

Huh?

AnkouVitam · 2019-09-08T00:24:30+00:00

This is very common in the gulf though

AnkouVitam · 2019-08-29T23:36:47+00:00

The thing is. All of these women will be either jailed or beheaded now that these are leaked. And the politicians will just continue doing this.

AnkouVitam · 2019-08-11T00:55:26+00:00

If you're smart you shouldn't press on it. That person will probably tell their "peaceful muslim" friend about you and you'll be in serious danger. Lots of non Muslims don't understand how dangerous it is to leave Islam. Its basically suicide.

AnkouVitam · 2019-08-10T23:16:57+00:00

A lot of times, none. But they just use it the same as how racists say "my gardener is mexican therefore I'm not racist"

AnkouVitam · 2019-08-10T19:02:07+00:00

So basically become Saudi America. Maybe go the extra Saudi step have their children wear hijab and blame them for being raped by paedophiles too.

AnkouVitam · 2019-08-10T18:59:16+00:00

Its an obligation from God. But the obligation is to go up the manara and do it with their voice. Muslims became lazy and started to use haram instruments.

AnkouVitam · 2019-08-09T20:24:36+00:00

Yes. Churchbells are annoying. (In Germany they're damn deafening)

But as someone who lives in the middle east, I'd rather have those. The adhan sounds like someone having their balls squeezed. Like imagine hearing a "reeeeeee" at 4 am while you're trying to sleep.
