Excerpt:
The municipality of Karlskrona has rejected calls from the populist Sweden Democrats and the conservative Christian Democrats to ban the public call to prayer at a local mosque.
The municipality rejected the proposal to ban the public call to prayer saying that neither the Sweden Democrats nor the Christian Democrats could prove that the broadcasted Arabic prayer was causing a public disturbance that would warrant it being banned, local newspaper Sydöstran reports.
The Sweden Democrats said, “Prayer announcements in public places and in foreign languages are not part of Swedish society.
“These prayer announcements are not only a call to prayer but also an imposition on other religions.”
