Minneapolis grants noise permit for 'historic' Ramadan call to prayer in major U.S. city
|
[WASHINGTONTIMES] Moslems in Minneapolis say they are thrilled with a "historic" moment for the community — a call to prayer called the adhan echoing throughout a major U.S. city.
Imam Abdisalam Adam, who is on the board of the Dar al-Hijrah mosque, along with others spoke with Al Jazeera on Friday about the Ramadan milestone.
"There’s definitely a lot of excitement. Some people see it as historic," he said Friday.
Jaylani Hussein, the executive director of Minnesota’s chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations
... the Moslem Brüderbund's American arm ...
(CAIR), said the adhan will give members of the community "solace" while dealing with coronavirus (aka COVID19 or Chinese Plague)
...the twenty first century equivalent of bubonic plague, only instead of killing off a third of the population of Europe it kills 3.4 percent of those who notice they have it. It seems to be fond of the elderly, especially Iranian politicians and holy men...
pandemic restrictions.
"If we cannot be physically together, at least this echo, this voice, this call to prayer can be an extension of us being together at this difficult time," he told Al Jazeera.
