Best Way To Aproch My Noisy Neighbour by Oyinlomobambam(m): 8:55pm On Feb 20, 2022
Before I go into details of what happened, I would like to share some tips that I think might be of help...

I live in a three block of flats, so we are just 3 families in the compound. I am the only Muslim.
One of the family has been my friend for the past 15yrs and we understand each very well. this said family are celestial, and we do almost anything together. So the other family is a single mother and she just moved in about a year ago. I as a Muslim is not that religious as don't go to any mosque but sometimes pray in my room. Also my celestial family sometimes goes to church or we all drink throughout Sunday. So no one disturb eachother or ever have a misunderstanding.

But this woman that moves in about a year plus have been making the house unbearable almost everyday, expecially Sundays. I don't really know the church she attended but sometimes she goes to winners church that's close to us only when they have special services.
How do I know? Well, she'll tell us not to lock the gate as she'll be going to church and comes back late.

So the major problem is this woman pray like she's the only one in the compound, and anytime she started this her prayer, no one will be able to sleep again. Note, there are times I join her in praise and Worship, in my room without visiting her, because I love when someone is praising God in anyway comfortable for them. But where I have problem her is when she started this prayer... Chai, this noise will be too much and it's always unbearable... If you're a visitor, you'll this there's a war going on.

I don't know how to approach this because I don't want her to see it as a religious war, secondly I don't want her to think I am doing any bad thing that is making me uncomfortable when she's praying.... I don't ask anyone not to pray, they should consider we that's don't go anywhere on Sunday. I don't know the reason she doesn't go to church on Sundays self.

Please what's the best way to approach this? Thanks

Speak to her about it in a friendly manner that she should lower her voice during prayers a bit... Lobatan

Talk to her, if she persists report her to your caretaker or landlord. Make sure you have recordings incase she tries to deny.

My landlady is in USA, and I am like caretaker in her absent.
She's sick and I don't want to bother her with the issue.

The woman is adamant.

No caretaker... Just that I am close to the landlady and she called me directly anytime we needed to do something in the house.

She's very sick now
