ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Musallah

Musallah is like a special place where Muslims go to pray. It can be a separate room in a building or even just a small area in a public space. When it's time for prayer, Muslims will go to the musallah, take off their shoes, and face a certain direction called the qibla. They will then perform their prayers which involve standing, bowing, and prostrating while reciting certain verses from the Quran. It's important for Muslims to have a clean and quiet space to pray, so a musallah provides a dedicated area for this.
