And this was our party from last Sunday at pacha. Thanks to everybody who danced with us and especially to Âme for being our guest for the party. #solomun #solomunplusone #âme #pacha #ibiza

However, the Three-Time Award-Winning Artist faced an intense reaction from Muslims in the entire world after using a track which contained a vocal sample of the Islamic call to prayer. The incident happened during his performance over the weekend at Kappa Futur Festival in Turin, Italy.

Solomun issued a sincere apology on his social media platforms to try to sort things out with his fans from the Arab World; stating that he received the demo shortly before the performance and that he was unaware of the Islamic call to prayer included.

According to YourEDM, DJ Dax J was sentenced to a year in prison after doing the same in a performance in Tunisia.

WE SAID THIS: Different people around the world have different beliefs and traditions, and international icons should pay more attention to these differences to avoid triggering anyone.
