If you’re a Non-Muslim and you see a Muslim praying in public, could you please not pass in front of them?
Go behind them, but not in front. 👍
Oh, signal boost! I didn’t know this.
Okay, but also: if you see a Muslim praying in public and they have something in front of them, like a purse or a bag or something like that, you can pass in front of them, but pass in front of that object.
it’s called a sutrah, and it’s meant to act as a physical barrier between the person praying and someone who might happen to pass in front.
Also, if you did this and didn’t know, please don’t beat yourself up over it. Now you know! Muslims aren’t supposed to pass in front of Muslims praying, either, because prayer is communication with God and you don’t want to break that connection.
Spread culture, respect customs, be good people. Simple as that.
Didn’t know this.
Okay! I didn’t know this, thank you for educating us

A dancing Ditto for all your dancing Ditto needs.
"You taste like summer in the coldest of weathers- your smile can bring warmth to a brick house- Overthinking at 4 am.
How empty can one feel- if they allow themselves to feel
You smell of spring in the short hours of winter as flowers begging to die slowly
But my thoughts come across you when I think of green grass and bright blue skies
Your eyes felt like a cool ocean breeze while your arms felt like home
It’s never a place or a thing but where you lay your heart to stay
I keep my hands strapped to my waist in fear of tugging on the tiniest string
I bend and fall to my knees if I fall on cracked concrete
Your hands feel like the beginning of winter and your kisses wet and crisp like autumn mornings
And I count the afternoons you walk aimlessly
In search for what used to feel like home
It’s now only a memory you cannot bear to look back on
I forgot what seasons taste like."
