Re: Ban Loudspeaker
I understand the case of azan, armughal bhai, but what are they trying to explain us when they (Dubai Department of Islamic Affairs) say:BANNING OF LOUDSPEAKERS IN DAILY PRAYERS. I think the meaning is simple and clear i.e. NO kind of loudspeakers will be allowed in daily prayers.
** The sole purpose of loudspeaker (internal or external) is to make the voice loud, and that is what the name Loud - speaker *means. When D.D.I.A says BAN loudspeaker for daily prayers, armughal bhai… doesn’t your comment gets little contradictory when you say, “internal speakers are still used*
*What do you think they are trying to Ban then? External speakers for daily prayers? *
They didn’t mention that and I don’t think it has any meaning in announcing; publishing and making a big issue with debates just to ban external speakers for the daily prayers. Who do you think is gonna follow a congregation by hearing the external speaker from their houses without physically participating in it. Isn’t it utter useless to Ban external speaker when none uses it to pray daily prayers.
*I think the fact, which everyone can clearly understand from the published news is that, they are gonna SWITCH OFF EVERY kind of loudspeakers (internal or external) at the time of daily congregation. *
*The Big question that remains to be answered is “How are we gonna do our daily congregations when we can not hear the Qirat and thakbirs of Imam? *
Don’t tell me that you will follow the front guy. What if you are in Sujud?
