For Muslims, it's a high-tech call to prayer. A new cellular telephone generates five automated reminders a day at prayer time and points Muslims in the direction of Mecca.
It also contains a copy of the Islamic holy book, the Quran, in both Arabic and English.

I'll bet it has a handy dandy "Detonate" button for the jihadi on the go too.

How about the nearest swine farm or pork butcher house not within 30° of the angle to Mecca?

Ask the Imam
The above link is a site where the Moslems ask the so called religious dudes questions. As you can see if you look at the site, the primary thing one does once becoming a Moslem is unscrew ones cranium, remove ones brain, then ask the imam what to do from then on.
Islam and free thinking do not mix. Hence, Islam is un-American and just about un-everything else except Islam.
