"As well as providing a visual cue to a Muslim community, the main function of the minaret is to provide a vantage point from which the call to prayer (adhan) is made."


I think the issue is to do with the height and the dominance in the skyline. The aim in Islamic countries is to be the tallest and most dominant thing on the skyline as it is the most important.

We have this with Churches in the UK, or used to.

I can get the problem with this.
