Drum - for call to prayer


Inside the mosque which can accomodate 120,000 muslims (125 toilets) is this huge drum. The guard explained to us that many people don't even wear watches - they know the time by the beating of the drum. If you notice, I am wearing a gray robe (similar to our graduation gowns) my shirt sleeves were not long enough. Surprisingly, we did not have to wear head coverings.

I love Tasha's 'Rock Star' t-shirt. Strains of 'It's a Small World After All' are running through my head. And your grey robe is simply fetching.
