Assalamu Alaikum,

 Is it hard to practice islam in schools for you.  Wht salawat do you pray in school.  I pray thuhr in school.  It's hard at first for me, but now i just find a place that is clean and pray.  

      Salamu Alaikum

Assalamu Alaikum waRahmatullahi waBarakatuHu,

Same for me Subhanallah. I pray Salat-ul Maghrib in college sometimes three or four times a week, especially during Ramadhan b/c it's so early in the day, Subhanallah. But Insha'Allah all is well, as long as I'm not missing my prayers it's for the best. We have a Muslim Chaplain's Office in my college where we can go and pray. We have a prayer rug in the room too so Alhamdulillah it's very convenient. May Allah help you get a room also. I also pray Salat-ul Dhuhr and Salat-ul Asr in school most of the days, but Insha'Allah Khayr.

Wassalamu Alaikum,
Betul

as salaamu alaykum,

Mouath!!  Good to see you posting bro.. :) :)

(guys, this is a good friend of mine.. treat him really well, ok? :))

When I was in highschool a whole bunch of the Muslims used to pray dhuhr together in an empty classroom during lunch time.. and during ramadhan we used to just hang out in the classroom and chill instead of going down to the cafeteria..

It was pretty cool.. back when I was young :)

take care.. and don't eat Abdul Qadir ;) :)

wasalaamu alaykum.

ps - I hear yesterday was your birthday?!  MashaAllah, a teenager now..

Asalaam alaikum.
 At my university, we have several rooms that have been set aside during prayer times for the Muslim students.  You could possibly talk to your MSA about setting this up.

i pray zuhr and asr in university most days, and some days maghrib also.  our university has a building that was funded by the sultan of brunei, and one of his stipulations was that there should be prayer rooms in the buildings. so we have two prayer rooms complete with wudu rooms which is really excellent :)

oh, i also pray jumu'ah in university  - we just book a big lecture hall and one of the brothers does the khutbah and leads the salah

The most difficult salah that i 've is duhr , this time i 've class .. so, i ask the lecturer to go out and pray but the problem is we don't 've a place to pray thought muslims student in my class are only 4 and 3 of them are foreign including me , we go to masjid to pray...but, it is too difficult a lecturer to allow 3 students to go out. we leave the class before she/he come..sometimes they asked ''which the best to listen our lecture or to pray ?''we definitely said...our prays is more important to ur lecturer..and they really get shocked.

slm,

first off, welcome aboard dude ;-D enjoy you stay inshallah :)

about prayer in school, our principal is ok with us praying at school by ourselves.. the librarians are nice enough to let us use any of the unused oom sin the library for salaah.. and on fidays, we have permission to take time out at the beginning of lung period to hold jummah... where myself and a friend of mine take turns giving the khutba each week. so alhamdulillah it works out nicely for us :)

- the welcoming wagon ;-D
