If youāre 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. š
Oh, signal boost! I didnāt 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.
itās called a sutrah, and itās 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 didnāt know, please donāt beat yourself up over it. Now you know! Muslims arenāt supposed to pass in front of Muslims praying, either, because prayer is communication with God and you donāt want to break that connection.
Spread culture, respect customs, be good people. Simple as that.
Didnāt know this.

Similarly, if a Jew is saying the Shemonah Esrei prayer (whispered, moving only the mouth, standing facing east with legs together) donāt go in front unless thereās a barrier.
