Germany's Largest Mosque Allowed to Broadcast the Call to Prayer

⚔️ HELP Us Defend Against Hindutva

The Cologne Central Mosque, Germany's largest mosque, along with 34 other mosques, have been permitted by Cologne to broadcast the call to prayer, known as the “adhan,” every Friday afternoon, from 12:00 PM to 3:00 PM. This decision is a part of an agreement with the city to ease restrictions on the Muslim community. The mosques will be required to inform their neighbors before they begin broadcasting the adhan, and have limits to the volume of their speakers. The agreement received mixed reactions. Henriette Reker, Cologne's mayor, posted that the mosque's call to prayer will join the Cologne Cathedral's bells. "Permitting the [Muslim] call is for me a sign of respect," Reker said, adding "It shows that diversity is appreciated and lived in Cologne.” Cologne became the first major city in Germany to broadcast the Muslim call to prayer.
