On the early hours after the sunrise I took this picture while I was in the holy city of Makkah and on the second floor of the Masjed Al-Haram facing the Kaaba. It was really tough to take any picture in this holy site, especially with a large camera, because photography is not allowed.
The movement around the Kaaba is of Muslims performing a tawaf, which consists of circling the Kaaba seven times in a counter-clockwise direction.
"The Kaaba is the cube-shaped building in Makkah, Saudi Arabia, and is the most sacred site in Islam. The building predates Islam, and, according to Islamic tradition, the first building at the site was built by Abraham. The building has a mosque built around it, the Masjed Al-Haram. All Muslims around the world face the Kaaba during prayers, no matter where they are". (Kaaba, Wikipedia)

An estimated 11,000 Muslims attended the "Muslim Great Adventure" which attracted American Muslims from Indonesian, African-American, Middle Eastern, Pakistani, and African communities. Great Adventure is an amusement park rented by the Islamic Circle of North America, which has headquarters in Queens, NY. The last time the event happened was on September 8, 2001. The organization waited three years after the terror attacks to host the event again not without generating considerable controversy among right wing radio hosts.

Along the gates of Teen Diwarja during Ram'zan, رمضان. Many Muslims fast from between dawn (fajr) and sunset (maghrib) during this lunar month.
He keeps a small lamp in a Hindu shrine burning which sits within the central Teen Diwarja gate. Fascinating mish-mash of faith.
Located on Amber Cres. From the main gate, drive straight through, when road forks in 3 different directions continue on the middle row.

People often ask me (mainly my dad) why Muslims get so upset over a cartoon. My answer is, because we respect other religions (at least, the majority do-those that don't are idiots and murderers). We believe in Christianity, we believe in Judaism. It seems to many Muslims right now, that there are very few out there who even respect our beliefs enough to be informed about them.
Traditionally dressed women wearing an abaya (a long-sleeved black dress) and the one on the left has her face covered with a burqa. Some women were veiled with only their eyes showing and others only covered their head.
This Muslim beggar girl begged in a lane close to my house she had a defect in her eye.
Her mother worked as a domestic help her father she told me was mentally unstable.
Later she begged wearing a hijab.
However it's been months I never saw her again I hope she is well a Facebook friend showed interest in getting her eye operated for free.
Her grandfather too begged in the same line I suggested to him about my friends offer but the grandfather never got back to me.
Such is life living on the edge

The boy was a muslim kid while the old man was a Kafir Kailashi. It was a surprise for me when I found out that many msulim famlies live inside Kailash and there were no interfaith tensions of any sort.
