EGYPT TO CURE PRAYER CALL'S CACOPHONY

In Cairo, a plan to harmonize the call to prayer by using a single muezzin's voice broadcasted to multiple mosques is underway. This initiative aims to reduce noise and present a softer image of Islam. While some support the change for its potential to improve sound quality, others resist, fearing the loss of tradition. The religious authorities justify the move with references to the Koran, assuring it aligns with religious practices. The change will impact local muezzins, who will lose a significant part of their roles but continue assisting imams. Despite the changes, Cairo's vibrant soundscape will persist.
