The prayer mat

 
The importance of the prayer mat

Prayer is one of the 5 pillars of Islam, just like Ramadan. As a Muslim, doing the prayer is an obligation. This pillar, which is an integral part of the Muslim's religious routine, has great importance and significance.

In the 14th verse of Surah Taha of the Qur'an, Allah Subhanu wa Ta'âlâ said, "Surely I am Allah, there is no other deity worthy of worship but Me, worship Me and perform the prayer to remember Me. Hence the importance of the prayer mat.

Indeed, it is on a prayer mat that the servants of Allah usually pray. It should be known that our Prophet Muhammad ﷺ used to pray wherever he could, whether it was on the ground or on a mat. The prayer mat was designed with the objective of ensuring a clean and comfortable space. This helps prevent back and knee pain.

What is a prayer mat?

A prayer mat is a type of flat fabric that is used by Muslims to perform their daily prayers. It is usually made of cotton, wool or silk to ensure your comfort. Many of them are designed in Turkey. You will find them mostly decorated with geometric shapes. Prayer rugs come in different colors and styles. They can be used both at home and at the mosque. Some prayer rugs are also designed to be folded and carried on pilgrimage. Generally, when praying, they are oriented towards the Kaaba, a monument located in Mecca.


The prayer rugs are often accompanied by a compass, which helps the Muslim to find his way to Mecca.

Which prayer mat for adults to choose?

Sold separately or in a box, prayer mats are an excellent gift idea. Give one to yourself as well to allow you to pray with ease and serenity.

Solid color prayer mat:

It has no decoration or patterns, especially to ensure optimal concentration. Indeed, it will avoid any distraction during the prayer. Simple and sober, they are offered to a woman as well as a man. With a plain color, you are sure that the prayer rug will please the person to whom you will offer it.

Opt for a luxurious, comfortable and padded prayer rug:

It is essential to have a comfortable prayer mat especially when you perform long prayers. It is not easy to sit on the floor.


In the shops, you will find very thick prayer mats (up to 3 cm thick). So you can stay as long as you want on your prayer mat, whether to do your prayers, read books like the Koran or make dhikr with your rosary for example.
