The Juma Masjid of Bombay Trust on Sunday said that they were devising an app for mobile phones, that will enable every user to receive the sound of the azaan in the comfort of his/her home.

This is following the Supreme Court guidelines that restrict the use of loudspeakers in public places at night. The guidelines also say loudspeakers should not be used between 10 pm and 6 am. The issue has taken a political turn with Maharashtra Navnirman Sena chief Raj Thackeray’s demand that loudspeakers at mosques be removed to follow the SC guidelines.
