That's nothing. I was at a hotel in Batam. Nearby was a mosque, loudspeakers directly facing the hotel pool.

They are not suppose to use loudhailers and amplifiers if they really want to stay authentic as in the old days during time of mahomet, there were none.

- Baby muslim boys, all get cut lan jiao, some baby muslim girls get cut chee bye.
- Fast for one month every year
- Pray 5 times per day (but no effect on enhancing peacefulness)
- Visit Makka once in the life time

According to forum islamists, once you complied with all the rituals you are considered a good person who doesn't tell lie. So Zakir Naik is a good and honest man.

During my NS days, friday prayer means going bunk to sleep. The malay CSM also went bunk to sleep.

According to the forum muslim scholar loofy, a muslim who doesn't miss giving zekat and follow all the rituals is a good person and credible. That is the core criteria muslim scholars use to authenticate the authors of hadiths. Very scientific and rigorous according to him?

Modernised will imply islam is not perfect. The belief is ISLAM is perfect and uncorrupted, so cannot change by even 0.0001%.

THey started off as modern but eventually slowed and regress due to evolution into a religion. It did not startof as a religion.

Why can't they follow MUIS to discontinue the use of outdated loudhailers?

Any issue with switching to use modern mobile app instead?

Chemical leak incident from pasir gudang does not happen every day.

Those marsiling kaafirs staying in the blocks facing the causeway will have to endure the call of allah 5 times per days.
