(bea)just been in a lecture where a lad leaves early so he can go and pray (to Allah) and this reminded me that it is ramadan at the mo'. well, i've just been perusing some other blogs via andrew jones' blog and found an advert about ramadan in other countries. also, marjorie allen told me the other night that the muslims in her work are allowed to take extra time at lunch to pray, and they have even set up a prayer room specifically for ramadan. have any Christians out there ever been allowed any extra time off to pray?
