All Islamic Devotional Rites

The acts of worship of Muslims: the daily prayer called salat and the prayer for rain, the pilgrimage rites of Hajj and the running between Safa and Marwah, the vow of nadhr and the Shia passion play of Ta'ziyeh. A ritual belongs here when its cited article describes a devotional act of Islam. It excludes Islamic purification and funerary rites, which sit in their own subcategories. Examples in the atlas include Sa'i (The Rite Of Safa And Marwah).
