Whatever the words are, the purpose is a call for Muslims to pray, nothing more.
A person can walk away from someone preaching the gospel.
Easier said than done.
That being the case the victims are called intolerant and bigoted;
Yes, when they frame their arguments as "I don't want that religion around me."
Frame it as "I don't want that noise at 6 a.m." and I'm right there with you. I don't expect the council that allowed this to happen to last beyond the next election.
You consistently espouse islam on this forum. It's not appreciated.
Since you can't seemed to be bothered to find out what they are, I will inform you. Here is a rather simple and benign one:
Allah is the Greatest (4 times)
I bear witness that there is no god except Allah (2 times)
I declare that Muhammad is Allah’s Messenger (2 times)
Come for salaah
Come to success
Allah is the Greatest (2 times)
There is no god except Allah.
There are others out there that are, shall we say, a bit more militant. Needless to say, the message presented is quite a bit different than church bells.
(re: walking away from preachers)Easier said than done.
This is confusing; unless you are speaking of some sort of cult, or are you speaking of people that are weak willed and unable to tell others what they don't like? If find it very easy to tell missionaries to get off my porch. I also find it very easy to walk away from a corner preacher.
Yes, when they frame their arguments as "I don't want that religion around me."
Spin, spin spin...the arguement is not "I don't want that religion around me", the arguement is "I do not want that religon IN MY HOUSE OR ON MY PROPERTY.". There are bigots in the equation that don't want islam to be there. It just so happens that their bigotted argument rides the coat-tails of a very valid property rights and religious freedoms issue. As stated, the noise argument is easily made. It does not address the root of the problem. That root is that US citizens have the right to not to be preached to within the confines of their own homes, or on their property.
Final note: Contrary to conventional wisdom, there is no law against being a bigot, racist, superiemest, whatever. If someone doesn't want to have something, or someone around them and theirs that have the right to say so (unless of course you are in Canada, then its "hate speach"). What is illegal is to act on that bigotry. If I had to lay money on who is gonna act on their bigotry and toss the first firebomb in today's day and age, I am placing my bets on the moslem; be he a moderate of fundamental.
