Government in Denmark to halt Islamic call, ezani: No room on Danish roofs

Morten Bodskov, of the leftist Social Democratic Party, confirmed that the newly elected Danish government would launch an investigation into whether such a ban would be legitimate, writes GB News, broadcast Periscope.

He told Danish news agency Ritzau: "prayer calls should not be heard on Danish roofs.

There is no place in Denmark and you should have no doubt whether you ended up in a suburb of Islamabad when you walk through Denmark. "

The minister further said that a"ilamisation"gradual was"was suggesting a lot of public space"in the Scandinavian nation.

This marks the third case a Danish immigration minister has tried to establish a legal basis to prevent public calling for prayer.

Previous efforts were made by both the Social Democrats in 2020 and 2025.

Ezani is a traditional prayer call, and it is transmitted five times a day by glass minarets using loudspeakers.

Local regulations in parts of Denmark, including Copenhagen, already hinder the amplification of the call due to noise restrictions.

Copenhagen's Great Mosque has an existing agreement with local authorities, under which it does not broadcast calls for prayers in nature.

However, the proposed ban across the country faces possible legal obstacles.

Government investigators must balance constitutional protections for religious worship with the interests of those living near mosques.

Denmark's constitution guarantees the right to public worship, although certain exceptions exist.

These include bans on preaching that undermine democracy and restrictions on donations to illegal organisations.
