The Muslim call to prayer will ring out more freely in New York City under guidelines announced by Mayor Eric Adams
The Muslim call to prayer will ring out more freely in New York City under guidelines announced Tuesday by Mayor Eric Adams, which he said should foster a spirit of inclusivity.
The police department’s community affairs bureau will work with mosques to communicate the new guidelines and ensure that devices used to broadcast the adhan are set to appropriate decibel levels, Adams said.“For too long, there has been a feeling that our communities were not allowed to amplify their calls to prayer,” Adams said.
The adhan is a familiar sound in majority-Muslim countries but is heard less frequently in the United States.allow mosques to broadcast the adhan publicly. “Our children are reminded of who they are when they hear the adhan,” said Ferozi, who attended Adams’ news conference. “Having that echo in a New York City neighborhood will make them feel part of a community that acknowledges them.”
