What Is the Weirdest Place You Have Prayed In? Posted by jesa on May 16, 2017 in Arabic Language, Culture, Vocabulary
Marhaba! Today I want to share with you an inspiring and interesting story. It is the story of a photographer and journalist who is collecting images of people praying in different places around the world. I thought this was such an inspiring project, and maybe some of you would even like to join and be part of it! As usual, I will share this story in the form of a video and ask you questions to test your comprehension skills. However, what is different in today’s clip is that the story in it is written through subtitles. So in fact, you will be testing your reading comprehension in this post! Try to mute the sound on your computer in order to push yourself to read the Arabic subtitles for answers instead of listening to the English speech. Good luck! Share your thoughts about this news story with us!

About the Author: jesa
Salam everyone! Born as an American to two originally Arab parents, I have been raised and have spent most of my life in Beirut, Lebanon. I have lived my good times and my bad times in Beirut. I was but a young child when I had to learn to share my toys and food with others as we hid from bombs and fighting during the Lebanese Civil War. I feel my connection to Arabic as both a language and culture is severing and so it is with you, my readers and fellow Arabic lovers, and through you that I wish to reestablish this connection by creating one for you.
