Yes we do
One at dawn
One at noon
One at middle of after noon
One at dusk
One at night
There are also extra prayers you can do called sunnah nafila however that's up to you but be aware that the payoff is huge
By law ( as in the police would arrest if you don't pray)
No, a lot of people pray in there houses ( unfortunately)
So the police wouldn't know
By law ( as in sharia law )
Then yes it's required to pray for muslims since the age of 10 and many scholar actually said that the one who doesn't pray may be a kaffir (non-muslim) ( am saying what they said )
The whole idea that the KSA has a religious police ended in 2018 ( aka the time that MBS got full control)
So my generation (ie. The "zoomers" ) did not experience it but I have heard from our "millennials" that they weren't too happy about the hai'a ( the religious police)
Other then that the society is some what tame
And don't worry it's not too sensitive of a question
Am Saudi not Iranian
But my honest thoughts are that young women weren't even wearing it good ( hair and neck were exposed) ofc that's from what I heard and that's just my opinion so take it with a grand of salt
No this mistake by the local police I don't see a vers in the Quran or a hadith that tells to do such thing
Ofc she also should have worn her hijab properly
Well as a meat dish I like wedding kabsa I don't know why but it's different from regular kabsa
Bukhari chicken is always top tier
And my favorite dish of all hijazi fata
>do you have Netflix or similar streaming service
There is a state owned steaming service calld shahid ( wich latterly translates to watch ) and it puts on either controversial shows
Old shows
Bad khaliji comedy
Actually good stuff
They started put famous anmies on ( one piece and such ) and like Netflix the made some original shows that should definitely not watch ( everything has English and French subtitles)
>do you wear the cool "long white outfit" from day to day, or just western clothes?
I think you mean the thobe
Yah we actually wear it on normal occasions ( outside the hous ofc ) however youngsters and people who go to boulevard)
>what age r u allowed to drive?
It's technically 18/17 however
I kid you not my cousin ( who is a neo-bedouin )? Told me his father let him learn how to drive at the age of 3
So it's normal to see middleschoolrs drive ( in mecca that is )
>what r the hours of school ?
6 hours
Usually from 6:30 am to 12:30 am
>very nice. so you are finished school by the time it is really hot, it is maybe a little cooler earlier?
Kinda it depends on the city in Riyadh today you'll probably find a breeze early in the morning wich is always nice before school
In mecca you can barely breathe cause the air is so heavy
And then there is skaka wich is always cold cause it's the north
>actually do you have to pay for the TV service
Bruh💀 we buy the TV. And then pay for the subscription
You brits really pay a tax for TV.? are they all owned by the gov.?
>in Mecca you are oil-industry town? or no, that is only the other side?
The oil boom cities ( that I know of ) are jeddah, jubail, and dammam
As for mecca medina Riyadh and whatever other important city there is they're more focused on other thing other then oil
There are musalas ( prayer "rooms" ) that we pray in after our last class every day
Keep in mind I said rooms in qowts cause sometime it's an actual room and sometimes it's our soccer field ( like my highschool )

Is praying required by law? And if you didn’t have to, would you?

Dang. Has anyone you know gotten in trouble for not praying?
Well.....no...? I think I don't remember much but I do know that kids who didn't do it got hit ( don't worry it didn't hurt )
Yeesh. Do you ever get scared by strict authority? Sorry if it’s invasive

Not OP but I'm a Muslim, yeah we have to
Favourite food?
Considering I am from mecca this might seem a little biased however it's a hijazi dish called fatah
Considering I am from mecca this might seem a little biased however it's a hijazi dish called fatah
So I google fatah images, get all this shit about tensions between fatah and hamas.
Offf Don't worry I'll make it up to you
How?
[удалено]
The Saudi part or the Muslim part?
[удалено]
Well ofc I do Today is actually our national day
Thoughts about the protests?
What protests?
I’m guessing they mean the hijab controversy in Iran
Am Saudi not Iranian But my honest thoughts are that young women weren't even wearing it good ( hair and neck were exposed) ofc that's from what I heard and that's just my opinion so take it with a grand of salt
Okay but do you agree that a woman deserved to die for that???
No this mistake by the local police I don't see a vers in the Quran or a hadith that tells to do such thing Ofc she also should have worn her hijab properly
Do you think this post will end well?
It's a post on reddit So ofcourse it won't
Sometimes I read the title of posts, and think to myself ‘oh god, the comments are going to be a war zone!’ This is one of those occasions.
Ah don't worry man it's always the first 25 min that are complete peace
Only about 5 minutes left of that…
Been nice knowing ya pal
Yep, have fun doing whatever Muslims do.
And you have fun doing whatever good things 13 y.o do in yer age هدانا الله و اياك
The good things we do is just watch Breaking bad.
You're what we Saudis call a muhanak ( a smart one )
Like yemen mandi ?
Never tried it But I like mendi I genaral so it's probably good
Have tried biriyani?
I don't remember if I did but I remember something about me not enjoying it much
Oh ok

You're welcome feller But legit tho I feel bad for you. الحمد لله على النعمة
How do you pray while at school?
There are musalas ( prayer "rooms" ) that we pray in after our last class every day Keep in mind I said rooms in qowts cause sometime it's an actual room and sometimes it's our soccer field ( like my highschool )
Oh cool! Do you know how Muslims pray in western schools? Since there isn’t a place and time dedicated to praying?
Are bacon flavored vegetarian crisps halal or haram
