Prophet Muhammad said, "The servant is constantly in prayer
as long as he is in a place of worship waiting for the prayer [ to be
observed in congregation], and the angels invoke [blessings upon
him in these words]: 'O Allah! pardon him. O Allah! show mercy
to him,' [and they continue to do so] until he returns [from the
masjid having completed the prayer] or his ablution breaks."2’7
The masjid serves as a training place where Muslims put the
teachings of equality and the fraternity of humanity into practice.
No other religion has been as successful in establishing a living
brotherhood of man as Al-Islam. The masjid gives Muslims a place
to meet at least five times a day in a spirit of equality and true
brotherhood.298 In the masjid all Muslims stand in a row before
their Creator, knowing no differences of color or rank, all follow-
ing the lead of the Imam. All differences and distinctions are
obliterated during the time of prayer. Thus the masjid brings
Muslims physically and spiritually closer to one another.
