Updated : April 21, 2017 09:54 AM ISTAfter being trolled for his controversial Twitter rant against azaan, Sonu Nigam talked more on the issue, saying, “When I am talking about Loudspeakers, I did mention Temples and Gurudwaras too.”
It was about Loudspeaker, and only loudspeaker. Too bad that they r on Mosques, Temples & Gurudwaras, thus the reference. Let's be human 1st https://t.co/JDwUHvqDnW

The singer took to his Twitter handle on Tuesday night to explain his earlier tweets where he spoke about the problems in waking up to the early morning Azaan.
His series of tweets:
And dear Everyone, for those who are tainting my Tweets anti Muslim, tell me 1 place where I have said anything related, & I'll apologize.

When I am talking about Loudspeakers, I did mention Temples and Gurudwaras too. Is it that hard to comprehend? Loosen up guys.

Other than these, the singer went on clarifying himself, the whole day, from debates and mud-slinging on Twitter.
Sonu, who was woken up to the sound of Azaan early in the morning, took social media by storm after terming the practice as “forced religiousness,” on April 17.
God bless everyone. I'm not a Muslim and I have to be woken up by the Azaan in the morning. When will this forced religiousness end in India

And by the way Mohammed did not have electricity when he made Islam.. Why do I have to have this cacophony after Edison?

I don't believe in any temple or gurudwara using electricity To wake up people who don't follow the religion . Why then..? Honest? True?
