Denmark Moves To Ban Islamic Call To Prayer

The Danish government is set to launch a new legislative bid to ban the Islamic call to prayer (Adhan) nationwide, citing concerns over the use of public space in a secular society.
 
The country’s Business Minister, Morten Bodskov, announced that the government would reopen an investigation into outlawing the broadcast summons. He stated that the traditional five-times-daily prayer broadcast from mosques does not align with the country’s public landscape.
 
“The call to prayer should not be heard over Danish rooftops. It has no place in Denmark, and you shouldn’t be in any doubt whether you’ve ended up in a suburb of Islamabad when you walk around Denmark,” Bodskov stated.
