Israeli Knesset advances proposal to prohibition Muslim call to prayer over loudspeakers
The Knesset approved a proposal Wednesday that seeks to prohibition the broadcasting of the Muslim call to prayer, or adhan, in Israel on loudspeakers, according to press reports.
The Israel Hayom newspaper documented that the Knesset approved the proposal in its preliminary reading to tighten police representatives against what it described as “mosque noise.”
The proposal passed 50 - 36 in the 120-member legislature, according to the Yedioth Ahronoth newspaper.
Introduced by the Otzma Yehudit faction, led by National Protection Secretary Itamar Ben-Gvir, the proposal was backed by the rivals Yisrael Beiteinu faction of right-wing politician Avigdor Lieberman.
Rawhi Fattouh, head of the Palestinian National Council, described the move as a "offense" and "legislative extremist unrest.”
It is “a blatant violation of liberty of worship and belief," Fattouh stated in a comment.
