Abu Dhabi: The Saudi Arabian administration has imposed restrictions imposed over the sound of loudspeakers in mosques. The Saudi administration has said it is advisable to keep the loudspeakers of mosques low. The sanctions were announced by Islamic Affairs Minister Dr Abdul Latif bin Abdullah Aziz al-Sheikh in Saudi Arabia only last week.

He had said that the sound of loudspeakers installed on mosques should not be 'more than one-third of the maximum sound'. He had said that the decision has been taken after constant complaints from people. "They also received complaints that some parents wrote that the loud sound of loudspeakers disturbes their children's sleep".  In his order, Dr. Abdul Latif bin Abdullah Aziz al-Sheikh wrote, "Loudspeakers on mosques should be used only to invite religious people to pray (for Azan) and Ikamat (calling people for prayer a second time) and not more than a third of the speaker's maximum voice."

He also wrote in his order that "Strict action will be taken by the administration against those who will not obey this order".
