Why cant Muslimes pray without being reminded?
The very public call to prayer is a head count. Who submits and who doesn’t is obvious. None of this “go off to a closet and pray.” None of this “pray in your heart” stuff. They want to SEE who prays. Also, given the savagery and violence of islam, there is the intimidation factor.
The head count makes perfect sense. Who to behead and who not to behead, in other words.. Thank you.
