(RAIR Foundation)—The Islamic call to prayer blasted over loudspeakers isn’t worship, it’s domination. It testifies that all other gods are false, all other beliefs are invalid, and submission to Islam is the only truth. In Mumbai, after decades of enduring this forced declaration five times a day, citizens have finally reclaimed their skies, their peace, and their constitutional rights. This is not about sound, this is about sovereignty.
For the first time in decades, the skies over Mumbai are quieter. And for millions of Hindus, Christians, and non-Muslims across India’s financial capital, that silence is more than a break from relentless noise—it is a long-awaited liberation from what many have called noise jihad.
In a sweeping move hailed by citizens and civil rights advocates, the Mumbai Police removed loudspeakers from approximately 1,500 places of worship throughout the city and suburbs. This action follows directives from the Bombay High Court and the state government of Maharashtra to enforce noise pollution laws, which have long been flouted in the name of religious privilege.
While Police Commissioner Devin Bharti emphasized that this order applied to all religious institutions, there is no denying the truth: only one community has weaponized loudspeakers five times a day to blast an intrusive declaration of religious dominance—the Islamic call to prayer, or adhan.

At Last, a Company With Integrity in the Gold IRA Industry
For several years, I’ve been vetting out precious metals companies in search of the best. I believe in gold and silver but it’s hard to find integrity in the Gold IRA industry. The vast majority operate with shady tactics and gigantic spreads that take advantage of Americans who simply want to protect their life’s savings.
I’ve found a handful that I like and I’ve worked with some of them. By no means would I “unrecommend” them because, again, I vetted them out and found them to be above the fold. Unfortunately, it isn’t hard to be better than the rest when the rest are so darn awful.
After years of searching, I finally found a company that truly operates with integrity. Augusta Precious Metals has three important attributes that set them far above the competition:
- Non-Commissioned Sales Team: I cannot stress how important and unique this is. With just about every other company in the Gold IRA industry, the sales teams make commission from every account they open. This means they steer their clients toward the gold and silver products with the highest commission. With Augusta Precious Metals, the team is solely focused on putting the best gold and silver for their clients into their IRA. They get paid to serve the best interests of the Gold IRA client, NOT their own commission pay.
- Incredibly Low Fees: Most Americans would be shocked if they knew the spread other Gold IRA companies charge. Augusta charges just 5% versus up to 45% elsewhere.
- No Pressure, No Gimmicks: There’s an understanding among most in the Gold IRA industry that fear and pressure is the way to go. Augusta Precious Metals takes a sober approach when working with clients because they hold integrity in the highest possible regard. This is why they don’t offer gimmicks like “free” or “bonus” silver. It’s also why they do not apply pressure tactics to get quick sales. Their educational and transparent approach to doing business is exceedingly rare in the Gold IRA industry.
