Detailed explanation-1: -The English word “mosque” denotes a Muslim house of worship. The word evolved from the Arabic term masjid, which means “place of prostration.” During prayer, Muslims briefly kneel and touch their foreheads to the ground as a sign of submission (literally, Islam) to the will of God.
Detailed explanation-2: -At the mosque, men and women pray in separate rooms performing the series of movements in a sequence. This involves bowing and kneeling as well as prostration and reciting praises to God.
Detailed explanation-3: -Imam: prayer leader; may also function as a spiritual advisor and expert in Islamic Law. (Traditionally, a congregation’s Imam is a man; a woman may serve as prayer leader for a women-only gathering.)
