  1. this presentation is going to be about a day in the life
  2. of a Muslim family by using Rahmah Mosque as an example.
  3. Um, so primary.
  4. So, first of all, Rahmah Mosque is a mosque in the suburb of all Guildford in Sydney.
  5. Um, the suburb has has quite a large population of Muslims,
  6. mostly Lebanese descent Muslims.
  7. The mosque is on a main street.
  8. Um, it has lower density residential areas surrounding it,
  9. but it's quite close by to the nearby local community area
  10. and, uh, local schools and and and other parts and other services.
  11. The main point that I'm gonna be discussing in this video are
  12. the daily activities of a Friday where the Jumah prayers are and
  13. the daily activities of an eighth day so we can get a
  14. sense of how these two days would compare against each other.
  15. So first of all,
  16. the daily activities of Zuma are when the family
  17. would be at home because it's a workday.
  18. Um, parents would go to work and the kids would go to school.
  19. And because Zuma would come around early afternoon part of the day, um,
  20. most people would then take a break during their lunch hour or their lunchtime.
  21. This means 2025 minutes.
  22. They would go to the nearby mosque for the weekly Friday prayers.
  23. The weekly Friday prayers are not mandatory,
  24. but there were a very good way for the whole community
  25. coming together to have a prayer time together on Friday.
  26. But as as it's not a Muslim country where we're not in a Muslim country right now,
  27. um, Friday's workday, However, in some countries around the world,
  28. Friday is a holiday is a weekend,
  29. so that would mean that the prayers would always fall on a weekend.
  30. Secondly, we have the daily activities, which are incredibly different,
  31. because either is a very,
  32. very special day for Muslims that celebrates the end of Ramadan,
  33. where Muslims fast for a month and the day of it break that cycle.
  34. This each day starts off with the need prayer early in the morning.
  35. This is usually mandatory for for all Muslims who are able to go to the mosque.
  36. Um, after this prayer, there's usually a celebration where everybody rejoices.
  37. Families and friends meet up because you're celebrating a whole month of where
  38. you've made sacrifice and you've been and you've been following the religious,
  39. Uh,
  40. um, teachings of the Koran.
  41. Um, afterwards, when do you come back from the mosque?
  42. It's usually celebration where you go meet friends, you go meet family.
  43. You're gonna meet people that you care about because you've
  44. because you're celebrating the work that you've
  45. done throughout the month now at Rama.
  46. Most specifically,
  47. there are quite a lot of activities that happened during these times as well.
  48. Um, so after the Juma or on the weekend, you have Korean classes.
  49. You have English and science classes as well That mosque offers
  50. there are photos that are shown above on the slide that shows the
  51. the gatherings that that that happened at the mosque.
  52. Um, some of them are big gatherings for it.
  53. Some of them are also just after
  54. lunch or
  55. or in the evening when people gather after after work or after school.
  56. So, yeah,
  57. this was just a little introduction to the two
  58. different major days of Muslims that that they have.
  59. Thank you. Very
