“We will not permit attacks against religious outlooks and the sacred,” Mr. Ouertani stated.

They said that “Dax J is English and played the song freshly in Europe,” addition that he did not comprehend “it might insult an audience from a Muslim nation like ours,” AFP described.

 The DJ say sorry for playing the song and believed in a declaration: “I want to offer my apologies to anyone who may have been insulted by the song that I played at Orbit Festival in Tunisia on Friday. I remixed a song which contains a 20 second voiced of the “Adhaan”.

For me, the “Call To Prayer/Adhan” is a beautiful choral. It was never my purpose to disappoint or cause insult to anyone, and for this, I am apologizing.

 The DJ has since shut down his Facebook page and has allegedly received an assault of online abuse.

Agents for Dax J dropped to comment on the stories.

This DJ should be banned for life for making FUN of something which is very sacred in Islam!
