New Delhi, April 23
After stirring up a controversy by posting about ‘forced religiousness’ and speaking against the use of loudspeakers atop mosques, temples and gurdwaras for religious purposes, Sonu Nigam, on Sunday, took to the social media to share a video of azaan.
There were reports in certain sections of the media that azaan could not be heard at Nigam’s apartment.
In the clip, which was presumably recorded at dawn, the loud call to prayer can be heard all around.
The post was captioned ‘Goodmorning India.’
Looks like, the 43-year-old has responded to the reports that claimed there was no ‘noise’ of azaan near his house.
The singer had even shaved off his hair after accepting a challenge by a West Bengal cleric, Syed Sha Atef Ali Al Quaderi, who issued a fatwa offering Rs 10 lakhs to shave off Nigam's head. — Agencies
