[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, I have Muslim friends who don't tell their co-workers their religion because they're afraid of how they'll react.  [/quote]

Religion should not be discussed at the work place in any event. It is very private and no matter what you belive, it should not be brough up at the work environment. [/quote]

Discussed? I worked with muslims who prayed in the workplace several times a day too so how can you ignore that?

Salat is the obligatory Muslim prayers, performed five times each day by Muslims. It is the second Pillar of Islam. God ordered Muslims to pray at five set times of day: Salat al-fajr: dawn, before sunrise.Sep 8, 2009[/quote]

A sensitive workplace would provide them a place to pray, if they want it. Though I support their right to pray wherever they want so long as it is not disruptive to company business. (And by that I mean actually disruptive, not "I don't like to see Muslims pray but I'm ok with Christian prayer.")

But anyway, I'm not sure of your point. If I see a colleague praying, eating, or doing anything else private, I don't comment on it or seek to discuss it. If they bring it up with me, that's fine. But I'm not going to approach them about it. Not my business.[/quote]
