I ONLY have one question (as I am not a student of the Muslim religion)

Is it allowed to pray SILENTLY at required times if you are in a place and time where praying aloud MIGHT concievably create suspicion as to your motivation for doing so?? (as in an airport JUST before you board a flight with other Muslims -- even if you don't know them)
As far as I know prayers in MOST other religions can be silent as SURELY prayers are between the person and their "God" whatever his/her name??

Codo: Of course, there are other points, where the viewpoints differ quite well, female rights, education etc, but there are more things in common then with my personal believes.


Intolerance and extremism are the same in any language. There are certainly similarities between extreme fundamentalist Christian views and extreme fundamentalist Muslim views - and the similarities are in the extreme belief that has no tolerance.
