I remarked no peculiarity in the style of praying, except that all followed the practice of the Shafeis in El Yemen, raising the hands for a moment, instead of letting them depend along the thighs, between the Rukaat or bow and the Sujdah or prostration. This public prayer concluded, many people leave the mosque; a few remain for more prolonged devotions.
This progression is admirably wrought out in Professor Max Muller's "Rig Veda Sanhita." The Moslem corpse is partly sentient in the tomb, reminding the reader of Tennyson: "I thought the dead had peace, but it is not so; To have no peace in the grave, is that not sad?" The prayers for the dead have no Rukaat or bow as in other orisons.
