Description
Devout Muslim men engaged in a crowded mid-day ritual prayer service, as observed from a nearby rooftop terrace. The location is the Firuz Aga Camii Mosque established in 1491 in Istanbul, Turkey.
The worshipers engage in a series of standing, sitting and prostrate positions while reciting in Arabic the following phrases:
God is Most Great
Glory be to my Lord Almighty
God hears those who call upon Him; Our Lord, praise be to You
Glory be to my Lord, the Most High
Each cycle of prayer is called: "rak'a"
