Yes

Why do they sing out using speakers in mosques? Is allah hard on hearing? This is obviously a new fad as 1900 years ago there were no amplifiers.

It is the call to prayer. It calls Muslims to prayer for the 5 prayers a day.

God is not hard of hearing.....

There is more to Islam then "suicide bombers and Islamic hatred against the none believers". There are people who live an everyday life, have kids go to work, socialize with friends, abhor violence. Muslims who are active in interfaith with Jews and Christians, and give to their community.

Unfortunately its folks like you who insist to only see the bad.

they do not sing .
they recite quran .
and they use speakers to make the people in the back hear and follow the imam the leader of the prayer .
Allah hears what you say in your heart .

Too bad there is so much bad to see....What I want to know about Islam is why they don't do something about their extremist faction?...Most don't even speak out against it, and often even defend the extremist acts..

OP: why are women treated so shabbily in most muslim countries in the middle east?

Why are incidents like the one linked below not met with OPEN public outrage by muslims even in free countries like the US?
