Muslim men kneel in their stocking feet, using the stripes as a prayer compass.
Glory be to God the highest. Five years ago, about 60 Muslims met weekly in an east county industrial park for Friday midday prayers. The sanctuary, financed by Saudi royalty, was dedicated by the king's son two weeks ago. At these houses of worship, men and women come to cleanse themselves and to submit to God - Allah. Many of them were born in Jordan, Egypt, Pakistan and other Islamic nations.
