Salaam, peace and every other type of hello or welcome!

Okay, I am not a type of person that gets impressed easily….well that’s actually a lie. I brought a yoyo the other day, talk about hours of fun!!!

Ahem…anyways – back to the point!!!

Right now this week’s item is straight out of a Ghostbusters movie!!!

A lighted sajjadah or prayer rug – comes from a Turkish designer, Soner Özenç.

The Britain-based designer uses light as an integral element in his imaginative creations. This modern piece that he calls Sajjadah 1426 (1426 is the year 2005 in the Islamic calendar), combines technology and the Muslim culture.

Sajjadah 1426 is a piece of art and a great example of the electroluminescent phosphor printing technology. Not only looking great it is also quite practical.

It assists the person who performs the divine service of prayers, not just by creating an amazing atmosphere, but by actually finding the right direction to pray towards. That if you doesn’t blow you away, I don’t know what will!!!

With the help of an imbedded compass module, the lighted motifs of the rug turn brighter the closer the rug is turned toward the direction of Mecca. This modern sajjadah introduces a brand new experience in the daily performance of prayer.

I am not sure if this item is for sale or not but it looks great!

Peace out readers!!!
