Ammonites finishing their Friday midday prayer


Ammonites finishing their Friday midday prayer

From Kerak, I took a bus to Ammnan, just over an hour away. It was Friday so almost everything was closed.
There are loads more worshippers on Fridays, the Muslim equivalent of the Christian Sunday. The devout even kneel on mats on the sidewalks, spilling out into the streets. There, they listen to what appears to be a sermon for about an hour. This is just after services had completed.
