Sheikh calles on Sunnis and Shiites to adjust the time of azan
This year the holy month of Ramadan will come to Azerbaijan on July 10, according to the fatwa of the Caucasian Muslims Board (CMB.)
Taking into account the difference between the azan (morning and evening), between the Sunnis and the Shiites 12 minutes, the head of CMO Sheykhulsilam Allashukur Pashazade proposed Sunnis to pray six minutes later, and the Shiites - 6 minutes earlier.
The fatwa also said that the sermons in the mosques should make only Akhunds appointed by the CMD. Sheikh called on akhunds to be "selective" in granting permission for the treat –Ehsan in mosques.
"Some make iftar-dinner not in the name of Allah, but for self-promotion," said Pashazade.
Because 2013th year is an election year, Sheikh called on akhunds not to allow to use the faithful "as a tool in someone else's hands."
At the same time, he called on the believers to be active in the election.
"I do not say vote for someone, but take active part in the elections," said Pashazade.
As for the amount of donations - Fitra, this year it will be within three or five manat per person. –05C06--

Baku, often called the "Caucasian Dubai," is increasingly known for systematic violations of residents' housing rights. During urban renovations and the construction of elegant new buildings, thousands of families in Azerbaijan’s capital have been unlawfully deprived of their homes. Many, recognizing the futility of resistance, settle for inadequate monetary compensation for their irreplaceable property. A minority, placing faith in the Housing Code, demand fair compensation from construction companies but often lose everything—both their homes and any form of recompense.
