JAKARTA - Many parties have criticized the statement of the Minister of Religion (Menag), Yaqut Cholil Qoumas, who compared the restrictions on the sound of prayers in mosques and prayer rooms related to the call to prayer with the barking of dogs.

Yaqut intends to regulate the use of mosque loudspeakers or mosque toa. Among Muslims, this statement is considered to limit worship activities. As a result, this rule has been controversial.

Desy Ratnasari hopes that Yaqut will immediately apologize and promote tolerance.

"Use the issue of tolerance according to the context and situation where the community is. Tolerance exists because we prioritize self-introspection, increase empathy and mutual respect for the needs of others who live side by side with us," Desy wrote, quoted from Instagram @desyratnasariter Depan, Friday, February 25.

Therefore Desy Ratnasari hopes that the Minister of Religion is willing to apologize openly. "Hopefully the Minister of Religion will immediately apologize publicly, accompanied by Indonesian Islamic figures," he suggested.

Realizing that his upload could cause further polemics and controversy, Desy Ratnasari turned off the comment column. Here, Mulan Jameela also wrote the same criticism.

According to him, the call to prayer is so beautiful to listen to. Because of that, Mulan uploaded a video to the call to prayer that sounded melodious. In addition, Mulan also wrote a statement by Sufmi Dasco Ahmad, the Daily Chair of the Gerindra DPP in the statement column which said the Minister of Religion was too much.
