The Muslim community in a meeting decided not to use loudspeakers for the early morning azaan fajr.

The decision comes after the Supreme Court order that bans the use of loudspeakers from 10:00 p.m to 6:00 a.m.

However for the rest of the prayers through the day, loudspeakers will be used within permitted noise levels, community leaders decided.

Ameer-E-Shariat of Karnataka, Moulana Sageer Ahmed Rashadi chaired a meeting of community leaders that included the ulema, legal experts and elected representatives and announced this decision.

Chamarajpet Congress MLA B. Z. Zameer Ahmed Khan, also part of the meeting, appealed to all mosques to follow the directive to avoid any confrontation or violation of rules.
