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!
