Apparently, there's a prohibition against making noise on Shabbos. See Shabbos 18a:
אבל אין נותנין חטין לתוך הריחים של מים אלא בכדי שיטחנו מבעוד יום מאי טעמא אמר רבה מפני שמשמעת קול
But wheat may not be placed in a water-mill unless it can be ground when it is still [Fri]day. What is the reason? Rabbah answered, Because it makes a noise.
(Soncino translation)
What is this all about?
- Why is making noise forbidden?
- What kinds of noise are forbidden?
