^ You’re missing the point. Both sides are being over zealous but unless there is a law requiring the restaurant to provide a prayer room, she has no right to demand one. It doesn’t matter if it’s a Muslim country, no law, no obligation. If that upsets anyone, they can show their displeasure by taking their business elsewhere.

I know you tend to get sidetracked within your own thoughts, so I’ve highlighted the important point above. Please don’t go tripping shrooms on me.

The rules of Western Christendom do not apply to the Islamic world. So please don’t apply them to the environment. The issue is not a prayer room but a place to pray. And in Pakistan like in Afghanistan, Sudan, Malaysia or Indonesia it is your obligation to provide it. Regardless of whether you like it or not, society and the majority of people deem it to be a requirement and a demand they can make. Considering the fact that I have prayed at restaurants around Islamabad, Lahore and Peshawar during Ramzan its very easily doable and is the cultural norm.

Just to point out my original comment was sarcasm. Intending to mock the responses that were gonna be posted stating the liberals were destroying Pakistan. And posts like yours just reinforce that idea. A typical point of view that does not take into account cultural context, local sensitivities or the norms of society. Rather you post like you know better than everybody who lives there and deals with this on a regular basis.
