Duke Chapel Call To Prayer - Muslim students enrolled at the Duke University are set to start a weekly call to prayer. This is the latest according to the announcements made by school officials. Call to prayers will begin on Friday. Will such actions restore the peace between non-Muslims and Muslims in and out of Duke University?

In an effort to restore the peace shattered by the recent massacre at Charlie Hebdo's quarters in Paris, Duke chapel call to prayer is started by Muslim students. The weekly call to prayer will begin on Friday. The adhan or azan, the chant, will be headed by members of the Duke Muslim Students Association,

Duke's chapel call to prayer will be held at the Duke Chapel every Friday at 1 in the afternoon. Each call to prayer will last for three minutes. Students or professors having classes at such time need not worry of the chants as these will be "moderately amplified" according to a statement released by school officials Tuesday.

"The adhan is the call to prayer that brings Muslims back to their purpose in life, which is to worship God, and serves as a reminder to serve our brothers and sisters in humanity," shares the Muslim chaplain at Duke, Imam Adeel Zeb, in a report by WRAL. "The collective Muslim community is truly grateful and excited about Duke's intentionality toward religious and cultural diversity."

The adhan or azan chant that will begin as Duke chapel call to prayer is usually performed in Muslim countries around the world. In correspondence to prayer times, the adhan is broadcast from television stations, including radios, five times in a day. During Fridays, the day of worship, broadcasts include sermons as well in Islam.

Even with the Duke chapel call to prayer, some are not pleased with the latest "action" to withhold peace. Franklin Graham, president of the Billy Graham Evangelic Association and Samaritan's Purse of Duke criticized the announcement. Still, the adhan continues on Friday.
