** ROUGH DRAFT ** ** Research Question: ** How are the ways Christians, Muslims, and Jewish believers prayer different and how are they similar? ** Introduction Topic: ** For this brochure I've chosen to look deeper into the differences of prayer between the Islamic Religion, Christianity, and Judaism. This is very relevant to the world today because although religions are different they are sometimes very the same and people never see that. Also, finding out the differences and similarities between religions that are so popular would be `she-say of the topic of religion. So, to see a visual representation of that would be very informative. The general message of this brochure is to teach people that although things might seem different, they are sometimes very similar to what others are used to and you can see that if dig deeper into it, past your own judgment. This brochure will give you details regarding prayer of each of the three religions then will go into comparing and contrasting them. ** Interpretation & Analysis: ** ** // Christianity  // ** · Christians go to church (although nowhere in the bible it says that they have to) · Church is on Sunday ** // Islamic Religion  // **  · Prayer is called salat J   · Muslims pray 5 times a day  · Each prayer has a different time (find out exact times of prayer) J   · Each prayer is recited differently  · (where does prayer have to be (the no pics thing and facing a certain way))  · Muslims pray in the Mas which is a Muslim worship place  · Muslims go to the Mas on Friday J    In the Islamic religion, Muslims are very strategic about how, when and where they pray. They have several forms of prayer and certain names each of those forms. The Arabic word for prayer is Salat. Salat is one of the five pillars of Islam, so prayer is a really big deal in the Islamic Religion. There is a certain way to pray and certain times to pray, so things are very step-by-step with prayer. There are five different prayers that should be performed each day. Those prayers all have certain names and certain sorahs from the Quran that go along with the prayer. The names of the five prayers are Farj which is performed 10-15 minutes before sunrise, Dhuhr which is performed after noon, Asr which is performed in the afternoon but closer to the evening, Maghrib which is performed after sunset until dusk, and Ish’a which is performed after mid night. Those prayers have motions to go with them, such as: (post image here). These prayers are normally performed in the Mas on Fridays.
