The so-called “Israeli Knesset” has, at its preliminary reading, approved a draft bill aimed at banning the call to prayer (Adhan) in mosques, under the name of the “Muezzin Law”. The Secretary General of the PUIC, His Excellency Mr Mouhamed Khouraichi Niass, strongly denounces this measure, considering it null and void, a crime of a discriminatory and racist nature, and a flagrant violation of the cultural and religious rights enshrined in international human rights law.
