Depends where in the world you are. Some places have had the foresight to regulate the loudness, priximity to housing and the time window where you are allowed to make noise. Other places in the world have different temples competing on which one can afford the loudest megaphone, placing them right outside some poor peoples appartments, knowing they are immune to criticism.
Islam: 5 times per day. ~3 min each.
Church bell frequenzy vary more per local tradition.
Also some regulate it to "only during special events" like religious holidays etc
The only fair way to do this is to analyze how long the existing religious facility broadcasts noise, and allow the new religious facility to broadcast noise at the same amount of time and volume.
