Was sat in the car in Belgium when a car pulled up at the side of me and a chap got his mat out and started praying to the west and very animated he was too. The women didn't and that set me wondering.

He then went into the garage and bought both the women a bunch of flowers each which pleased them very much judging by the numbers of photo's they took of the flowers.
It's preferable that women pray at home.
Yes they do .

Apparently they do.
But that isn't a mosque, it's a Unitarian church.
If they are anything like me they just pretend to pray :-)
Question Author
I asked because I wasn't sure if the women just couldn't be rr'sed to pray or their was another reason.

It's the first time I have witnessed it and If I'm honest I thought ... what a loon. (Although there was a really crazy storm 5 minutes after he prayed, so if that was what he asked his God for ....WoW!)
