Periskopi(5 years ago)
(5 years ago)News that the minister of Saudi Arabia's Islamic Affairs has made a decision to limit the use of loudspeakers that enhance the Hodge voice in Ezani's calls from mosques has shaken Kosovo society, which had gone through such a debate in the early years of 2010. At the time of Minister Dardan [...]
During the time of Minister Dardan Gashi's arrival, the bill for noise regulating the volume of voice stemming from religious objects had also been initiated, but other business objects and so on.
On the basis of many scientific research, it was found that the noise causes great frustration that could also lead to anxiety and depression, which, according to the European Parliament's recommendations, had also prompted the then Kosovo government officials to act.
“The bill also provides the basis for setting measures to reduce noise. It also includes the Religious Community after consulting with all these communities,” had said it in the Kosovo Parliament folk, Periscope follows.
But, the issue had been troubled for populist reasons so much that Gezim Kelmendi had even deemed the language used in the bill unacceptable, insulting Minister Gashi on personal grounds.
His “Sulmet on Islamic identity in Kosovo does not stop because last year it has suspended construction of the mosque, and in the debate on public television Ezani has called it environmental pollution.” MP Gzim Kelmendi had said.
And that had subsequently prompted parliamentary, but social debate on the issue in question.
So much had become the populist issue, that even the current LDK deputy known for his prudent stance as part of the Kosovo delegation in Brussels had lost a bag last year, Muhamet Mustafa, had described the comparison as “age” by Ezani.
But, fortunately, consultation between the Religious Community and the then government preserved the country from any major turmoil in the case after the meeting of Mytium Ternava and Minister Dardan Gashi.
Mufti Ternava and Minister Gashi had agreed that the bill would be reformed and issues related to religious objects to prepare jointly with BIK, and the changes needed to be made on relevant commissions.
It is not known how they have received the news of Saudi Arabia, which passionately opposed the Kosovo bill at the time. /Periscope
