LONDON: A British-Muslim entrepreneur delivered the adhan from London’s iconic Westminster Bridge on Friday, dedicating the call to prayer to thousands of Palestinians who have been killed in Israel’s war on Gaza.
Kazi Shafiqur Rahman, 38, performed the adhan in the style of the Grand Mosque of Makkah’s head muezzin, Sheikh Ali Ahmad Mulla, whom he has been a fan of since childhood.
Mulla has been a muezzin at the Grand Mosque since 1975 and his powerful voice is familiar to Muslims worldwide.
