The Facebook page named “Albagraph7” shared today (October 6) an article titled “Naim Abazi: The Mosque Call to Prayer Is Disturbing Me a Lot, It Must Be Stopped. We Are a European Country, People and..."
So based on this title, it is understood that singer Abazi has declared against the call to prayer.
But after verifying the facts by "hibrid.info", it was realized that the content of the article shows a completely different statement than what is claimed in the article published by the "Albagraph7" website.
Hibrid.info estimates that the reason for covering this article was due to the relatively high level of interaction on social media Facebook for this post.
Link to the article shared on the “Albagraph” Facebook page:
The article shared on Facebook by the page “Albagraph” was published on July 26 by the dubious Albanian-language portal “viraln32.com”. (see here)
Excerpt from the article published on the dubious portal "viraln32.com":
But what caught everyone's attention was his statement about Halil Kastrati, where he says: "If I sing to the imam on birthdays without money, and what was rumored that Halil Kastrati builds houses while Mihrija and I celebrate our birthdays together with the head of the BFI in Macedonia is unconstitutional, Halil builds houses with money from people who donate to him, while I help with the money I earn myself," Naim Abazi said, among other things, in an interview for Mirage.
After research, hibrid.info has found real articles of an old interview with Naim Abazi, from which Abazi's statement was taken, through which the suspicious portal's article was constructed. (see here and here)
Hibrid.info had previously addressed the same claim. (see here)
