2. Bathrooms=no go zones. Do your wadu at home.

3. Imams that go on forever like it's a taraweeh prayer or something

4. Imams that make people stay in the seated position for a long time before ending the prayer

5. High likelihood of running into obnoxious relatives/acquittances

2. If they move you is it because your line is already full and the guy is by himself behind? If so then that's what he's supposed to do, correct me if wrong but I don't think you can pray by yourself behind the last line therefore you must move someone to join you.
3. hasn't happened to me

What really pisses me off is people who pray in front of you but don't cover their lower back properly so when they do rukuh/sujud that nasty hairy area is on full display

so you can't pray by yourself in the last line? i wonder why? still, its annoying when your in prayer and someone is dragging you somewhere else.

i've also noticed in somali masjids, there is almost always an idiot who forgets to turn his phone off and it rings during prayer and instead of turning it off, he ignores it.

I hate those the most. Especially after the imam warns people before the prayer to turn them off. I mean even christians turn off there shit beofre entering a kiniisad .

i love the masjid, people just need to learn some etiquettes worst thing has got to be when a guy praying besides you has appalling breath like them ones you think he hasnt brushed his teeth for decades or suttin. worst thing is there aint no helpful kind way of admonishing them about this without being offensive

Good question....The old man from the Masjid that use the Masjid to establish a "rebuttable" reputation inorder to making a killing performing as "wadaadiinta quraanka dadka iyo guryahooda ku akhriyo".....I have seen them to be bunch of opportunist....One minute he talking about girls and the next minute he at this newly married families house to read quran as a pious mens....Get outa here man....

I'm suprised that certain people go to the Masjid

They want my money. They go around with a cloth or bucket for you to put your money in. I can't turn that down when people are throwing in 10s and 20s. It's a f-king recession, keep the bucket near the door and people will put their money there instead of forcing me. Bastards.

1. arab imams that only talk to arabs
2. imams not involved with community
3. girls who wear tight abaayas to the masjid
4. masjid security

That's a blessing.

Just don't smell bad pleazzzzzzzzzzzzze If you cooked food before you came to the Masjid take a shower and change your clothes pleazzzzzzzzzze I hate curry

good complaints everyone

somali imaams are the worst, it's like they want to show off their quraan skills during prayer so they purposfully pick the longests ayats.

I'm counting 5 so far.



**Imaams who cannot pronounce letters and words properly.**
1. Dude trying to make room before the salah, where there's obviously none, by standing over your shoulder and starting a nawaafil. smh.
2. People who don't understand you move toward the imaam, not toward any random guy in the line.
3. Don't pull my damn pants. If I see a space, I'll move into it. Don't touch me.
4. Stench of socks worn consecutively for 3 weeks.
......i. Socks laying around the masjid. HOW DID YOU LEAVE!?
5. Cellphones. Seriously, why doesn't every damn masjid have cellphone jammers?
6. Getting advice from random dudes. How you gunna tell me right from wrong? You don't know me. I could be a psycho waiting for you in the parking lot.
7. Parking. Masjids shouldn't even allow cars any more. They should invest in bike and moped rentals
8. Guys who pray right in the middle of the masjid. IDC, yes i will walk in front of you.
9. Multicolour floors and ornate patterns. I can't help but play with them in my mind. What's so bad about the simply two tone?
10. Parents. Either keep your kids next to you, or don't bring them. It's not a damn daycare center.
11. Admins. Either invest properly in facilities for children, or make it a damn rule not to bring them. How can they be so hypocritical about "teach your kids the deen" but complain when they're brought to the masjid? Especially masjids that boast about being youth oriented. Smh.
....... i. Admins who preach about the importance of community yet, don't know my name, even though I've been sitting there for 5 years.
....... ii. " who preach about the importance of truth, honesty, islamic finance, and proper work ettiquete ... yet, somehow fund annual Hajj and umrah trips for themselves and their entire families...... smh
12. Mu'adhins who can't pronounce the proper adhan.
13. Hostage fundraising. You lying scumbags. No, not even a dollar.


... there's more. This list never ends.

You guys gotta have some boundaries. And complaining that the prayer is taking too long because the imam is reciting long surahs is one of those boundaries because you're implyingthat you dont have time for Allah swt

Well said Oromo brother.
