The first thing my Muslim friend asked was for a room to have her prayers. I asked if I could join her. She dressed in the most beautiful full length white cover and prayed. And the feeling in my son's room was Angelic! Wonderful! It was such a joy to share this with her. How I appreciated the complete experience, including the cover, of reverence. It was the very beginning of a wonderful visit. I pray for this dear family, and their son. I pray that we may have the sweet time of simple sharing of our Faiths.
