3 Prayer Rugs
Oriental rugs, usually of small size; used by Moslems to kneel on when praying. The chief characteristic is the representation of a niche or arched doorway at one end, sometimes with the tree of life or a lamp hanging from the middle. Occasionally there are only three medallions, two for the knees and one for the head. Prayer rugs are called Sujjadah or musalla in Arabic, and Jainamaz in Persian, the latter rugs being about five feet long, the arch is called giblah.
