Mall of America Moves to Accommodate Minnesota Muslims

So long as the prayer room is available to all faiths and not just one, there is no problem with this.

I think I remember reading that Muslims don't allow infidels into their mosques. They probably wouldn't be as accepting as you, FRiend.

“Of course, out curiosity people will stare at you but don’t say anything,” said Shuuriye Ali. “I wish they would ask. I would love to educate them about my peaceful religion.”

Oh, it's OK. I live in the Middle East. I know firsthand just how "peaceful" your religion is, Shuuriye.

What I'd like to know is why such a "peaceful" religion has so many loud noises associated with it?

“They probably wouldn’t be as accepting as you, FRiend.”

Well, that’s what makes them muzzies.

And wouldn’t MOA be a little upset if all their customers shopped some place else because of their decisions?

What, no footbaths?

Infidels!

[LibWhacker]

They are forced to seek privacy in corners and alleyways, places that often subject them to unwanted attention.

What a joke. Muslims don't want attention.

Reynolds, the MOA security director, said that community volunteers were very helpful. “At one point, Sheikh Neelain Muhammad and his team were spotted talking to the youth and telling them to behave … and so, they did.” The presence of culturally competent volunteers at the mall avoided the law enforcement solution that often leads to the arrest of Muslim youths.

From this, it appears to be a quid pro quo exchange. The mall provided the prayer space, and in return, the local sheiks kept their "youth" from rioting in the mall.

Many places have those ‘family’ bathrooms where people can take care of their kids.....

Make it a ‘Family Bathroom & Prayer Kiosk”....
you could put candles on the baby diaper changing shelf./s

“Just as the UK has fallen so shall we! I’m sick!”

I doubt this is sign that we have fallen.

Want to see a sign? Go down to your local abortion clinic and see the “Christians” lining up. I would like to hear Christians demanding a quiet spot to pray, but we have different priorities.

there is a difference between tolerance and accommodation, I'd shop somewhere else

[WOBBLY BOB]

I avoid that place like the plague anyway.

[Gone_Postal]

you know what I pray to my Jesus any where any time....I don’t need any special place carved out of some mall or any business place....My God hears our prays

[LurkedLongEnough]

Well, that’s what makes them muzzies.

That's so series!!!!!

[WellyP]

I am SO tired of these Muzzie idiots! Will somebody please set up a pork B-B-Q next door and drive these idiots away!

[353FMG]

>“Allah akbar!” (God is great!) during prayers could be misconstrued as calls for Jihad.<

The day will come that one of them goes BOOOOM!

[redangus]

Let me guess no Nativity scenes allowed because that would be putting a religious symbol in a public place. I’m just saying.

[clintonh8r]

I wonder how many of the mall’s merchants are selling Christmas gifts a opposed to “holiday” gifts.....

Ibrahim's willingness to sacrifice his only son for God.

WRONG, WRONG, WRONG AND WORONG!

Abraham (falsely called Ibrahim here) had TWO sons during this incident. A bastard named Ismail and his legitimate son Issac. Moslems have twisted it and believe that Ismail was the one offered for sacrifice. WRONG, WRONG, WRONG AND WORONG! IT WAS ISSAC, THE LEGITIMATE SON THROUGH SARAH HIS WIFE (not that little hussy of a maid) who was offered in obedience to God. At the last moment God stayed Abraham's hand and supplied the lamb. He always supplies The Lamb and it is That Lamb whose birthday we are celebrating now, God's only son, JESUS.

But she and other Muslims needed to take time from the activities of the mall and find a quiet area to pray as Muslims do during the festival that commemorates Ibrahim's willingness to sacrifice his only son for God. If they would admit it was Isaac and not Ismael that Abraham took to sacrifice, and denounce Islam's violence against Jews, then, I might be more sympathetic.
