Azerbaijan, Baku, Dec. 15 / Trend T. Jafarov /
The Caucasus Muslims Office calls on Sunni and Shia to perform the azan together.
"The zzan must be performed by the Sunni and Shia simultaneously. A calendar of the azan was prepared to be performed together. The time for the azan is indicated for both the Sunni and Shia. We hope this problem will be solved," Caucasus Muslims Office Chairman Sheikh-ul-Islam Haji Allahshukur Pashazade said at a meeting of the Council of Gazis today.
The azan is performed at different times in many Azerbaijani mosques. First the Sunni perform the azan, later the Shia.
Pashazade said there is no ban on the azan, although it should not be performed too loudly.
