strips away all distinctions of wealth,<br />

status, class and culture; as all stand<br />

Quran, prayer beads, prayer rugs,<br />

which would also make good gift<br />

items for weddings or any special<br />

occasion.<br />

different varieties of Jubbah, or long<br />

dress, prayer hats (Kopiah) and rugs<br />
