Never Buy Prayer Mat With Kaaba On It, Here’s Why!

The majority of Muslims have been making this mistake, but we at The Islamic Information decided to address this little mistake which can be sinful.

Never buy this Jainamaz/Musallah!

These days we see lots of prayers mats that have pictures of Kaaba, Madinah, and other mosques.

In fact, if you look around, you will even find one in your own house.

The reason it is now allowed to buy such prayer mats is that we step on the images of Kaaba or Masjid Al Nabawi unintentionally. Which is clearly a disrespect towards the holy place.

So, it is recommended not to buy them.
