Wow subhanAllah

Very Nice, how come there are no picture from African countries,if am I ask?

Different country same prayer and faith. Islam is so beautiful.
Mashallah!

^ I've only been posting from whatever suitable pictures I could find. There were a few from Africa though, like Egypt, Tunisia and Morocco. But I think there tends to be less pictures from places like Nigeria and Somalia as compared to Indonesia and India/Pakistan. Perhaps the websites that usually collect pictures only go to particular places. I do agree that it would be nicer to have pictures from a greater variety of places.
