Outline:
Report circulating via social media claims that a new mosque to be built in Birmingham UK will have a speaker system that can be heard 15 miles away, and will broadcast calls to prayer 5 times per day.
Brief Analysis:
The claims in the report are untrue. No mosque with a speaker system like the one described is being built in Birmingham. The story comes from the satirical website British News BFNN. The material published on the site should not be taken seriously. While a large mosque is being built in Dudley, a town near Birmingham, there are no suggestions that the mosque will include a massive speaker system that can be heard from 15 miles away.
