No one should have to hear this. Churches would be in trouble if they were playing scripture out loud for 15 minutes at a time, we don’t need it

I would hate hearing this in Australia! I couldn’t stand hearing the call to prayer whilst overseas, was so relieved to return to Australia! It is so loud and drove me mad.
They can set an alarm, it does not need to be on a speaker affecting everyone else.
Please do not let this happen in Australia!!

this is Australia, not a middle eastern country. It is disturbing hearing these call to pray announcements. People in public going about their business shouldn’t have to listen to this wailing while they are out shopping or going for walks. It is disturbing the peace. They stopped church bells being rung on Sundays because people complained, why should people have to put up with this rubbish.

Muslim culture doesn’t mix with western culture and this is a intimidation tactic.

This will only be the start..start with 1 then onto the next mosque!! As a catholic our ringing of the bells are allowed to be heard any more..why are they being given a privilege. This is not an Islamic country...I do not want to hear this in a suburb I live in. How dare they!!!

These speakers cause noise pollution. Everyone has a right to live a peaceful life.

Loudspeakers would be an annoying intrusion into the community.
Surely the Lakemba mosque can just send an SMS to their followers.

We all have to live here. Why should one group get preferential treatment at the disturbance of everyone else.

If approved this will set a dangerous precedent. This display of religious dominance should not be tolerated or allowed in Australia. No community should be subjected to a broadcast of prayer, particularly when there are many alternative methods to get this message out directly to their followers.

This is not an Islamic country. There are other less intrusive ways to be called to prayer in this day and age.

No religion has the right to upset other people peace and quiet
What happens to schools, businesses nearby who have to listen to this and have their day interrupted with this noise
