This video has been shared for 1000 times before. Last time I was very annoyed and wrote a long post criticizing this man and I wouldn't do that again. The matter of Prayer or "Ibadat" is between you and your Lord. Why are you showing off by praying on top of your taxi. Anything that is disrupting others or when you are praying to seek attention of others in itself is unIslamic.

Allah commands you to pray to test you... He commands you to pray to see your intentions behind the prayer otherwise your prayers will not benefit him in any cause. I guess instead of praising this guy we must be criticizing him for his stupid act

Almighty is there to judge his intentions & not you Sir. 5 times prayers a day is a must for every Muslim in the world whenever the time occurs & wherever the time occurs.

P.S TITLE IS CLEAR SO ANYONE WHO DOESN"T WANNA WATCH IS NOT FORCED TO.

Because it is a pillar of Islam.

BTW i'm not that expert in Islamic theory & not a Islamic scholar so i will avoid your further questions.

if you don't now the logic then why do you even say in favor of that... you should be neutral in that case.

5 Times prayer is must but one must ensure other people are not being distracted by his activities. I am sure there would be plenty of Mosques in New York. If he can't go there... He could find suitable place like a Muslim shop or less populated area such as the public park if no alternatives are available. What is this logic that he start praying on the trunk of his car and make fun of himself. Look at the people laughing at him

Its a classical reaction of a devout Muslim as a pushback against racial profiling of Muslims in the West.. Its almost saying "Profile This"..

From the looks of it, the guy is in Soho. Not criticizing his behavior (not my place to do so) but there is an Islamic center just a few blocks away, why not go there and pray?
