(Copenhagen Post) Several political parties are urging the government to investigate the possibility of banning calls to prayer such as those heard from mosques, arguing that they are “very disruptive.”
Venstre, Dansk Folkeparti, Konservative and Nye Borgerlige are presenting a resolution regarding the issue in Parliament on Thursday, according to DR.
“For Venstre, it is not about a single religion, although I realise that prayer calls are often linked to Islam. Prayer calls are not something we have a tradition for in Danish society. We think that it will be very disruptive in Denmark,” said Mads Fuglede, one of its MPs.
