10/30/12 My views on 2day's ep. - Page 2

i have a question too.I am not a Muslim either, so am really confused.So whenever I see pics of inside a mosque, It's plain.There are just prayer halls.What I saw here was different. They were candles , and roses in the prayer room,and what looked like a place filled with a lot of flowers.I know I sound like a idiot, but I don't any of these.So,what's the difference between a mosque here, and what they showed today?😕

Wen muslims to go dargaah, or a mizaar, they're not asking' for anythign from the person who's burried there...They're sending peace an blessings on them, and asking Allah to grant their prayers, as He would'v eanswered the religious/pious person lying in that grave...

Aya...The place where the 3 were today was not a mosque..it's called a Mizaar...It's supposed to be the burial site of a very pious person.

I didn't understand the candles & flowers too. Was there even a dead person there ? I don't think so.

A masjid (mosque) is a place where muslims come together for prayers and read namaaz.

What they showed today was a mazar/dargah/wali...Muslims don't pray there as they pray their 5 daily prayers. We pray in a specific way. However in this place shown today, you go to make a prayer and join your hands and pray for the deceased souls who spread the message of Islam.


The proper place to pray for muslims are mosques, but you can go to dargahs to make a wish and or a prayer.

Hey ! : )

Thanks for commenting.

I'm a Muslim myself, but wanted to know why some Muslims go there, because my family members told me it's wrong, since the people ask the guy instead of asking Allah.

But anyway, thanks for clearing it out for me.

It's not wrong to go there. Some people believe it is, but as long as you still ask and desire what you want directly from Allah, its not a sin to pray for the deceased saint there and make a prayer directly to Allah for the sake of the deceased. And no problem, hope you get it now.
