Johannesburg, South Africa - A court has ruled the call to prayer at a mosque was too loud and ordered it toned down after a complaint from a nearby resident.
Judge Sidwell Mngadi from the Kwazulu-Natal High Court in Durban issued a court order against the mosque to ensure its call to prayer is not audible inside a neighbour's house across the street.
Judge Sidwell Mngadi from the Kwazulu-Natal High Court in Durban issued a court order against the mosque to ensure its call to prayer is not audible inside a neighbour's house across the street.
On Wednesday, the Isipingo Institute said it will appeal the ruling.
"The proximity of the applicant's property to that of the Madrasah and the overwhelming evidence of the making of the call to prayer ... create probabilities that favour the applicant's version that the call to prayer interferes with his private space," Mngadi said in his judgement.

The judge ordered the call to prayer may not be heard within Ellaurie's house.

Mohammed Patel, chairman of the Isipingo Muslim Association, said the mosque did not intend to further use external sound amplification.
