It used to be near to impossible to go shopping in Winters due to the prayer times being so close and the lack of prayer facilities...
That was until we came across a Muslim couple who owned a small little business in Kirgate Market. They were and still are, some of the most kindest/hospitable people I've had the pleasure to meet.
Every time I walk into there brick and brack market stall and ask them if I can pray, they never refuse. Even if they have to make place for me in the back store room, or kitchen (see picture!), they will. It's tight, small, with stacks of boxes and products, but still enough room to make sujood.
Looking at what they sell, you wouldn't think anyone would buy from there (honestly speaking, with primark being next door), but wallahi, I firmly believe that Allah has placed barakah in their business due to this beautiful act of kindness. smile emoticon
I can't help but make Duaa for them every time they give me permission to pray there.
May Allah place more barakah in their business and bless the infinitely in both worlds, ameen.
