Re: Banning loud speakers
^Sharabi you missed the other point; what if there is sick person in the house. What about Haqooq Al-ibaad?
IMO azaans were required in the past because there was no such thing as alarm clock, Why do you think that there is a need for the believer to be called? Why the believer cannot go there by his own will? Can the believer be responsible for there own time? If there is no azaan the believers will not go for prayer?
Your argument about non muslim is totally absurd, don't you think then by your logic all the muslims will loose their right to call in all non muslim countries.
Look! try to comprehend one thing I am not against believer's right to call for prayer, all I am saying is take care of the people living around as well. It should not so loud that the people get irrtated by it.
Above all when the azaans got started there were no load speakers, that can be our rule of thumb. What do you think people used to go for prayers during that time or not.?
