I’ve been involved in many interfaith meetings held in LDS meetinghouses — in the United States and abroad — where, when the time came for Islamic salat prayers, a room was made available for the Muslims involved to pray.

 

This has always seemed to me (and, plainly, also to the local Mormon leaders) simply the appropriate and friendly thing to do.

 

For that matter, there’s been room set aside on the BYU campus for the main Friday salat service for many years.

 

Thanks to Jabra Ghneim for alerting me to this item.  It’s made my morning.
