Prayer direction



A prominent feature of hotel rooms in Malaysia is the direction of prayer. A little searching and you'll find an arrow indicating the direction towards Mecca, which Muslims face during daily prayers.

Just as I've been struck by the faith and devotion of Thais when they interact with their holy sites and symbols, I've been impressed by the discipline with which the Muslims I've met in Malaysia approach their daily prayers. Faith is an inspiring thing to behold.
