.......will it be possible that shops/boutiques will not be closed when prayer time just like other arab countries have done?
.....I observe that shops are closed during prayer time to follow the ordinance set by the govt. because if they will be found out by the authorities, the shop will be closed and banned to operate anymore.....
.......as for me, if all saudis follows the schedule of prayer time (not forcefully enforced but on his own desire).....I think there is no difference if the shops are open or not esp. when the shop is operated by non-saudis.....what is the main reason why the shops are closed during prayer time? is it to show respect or to avoid some saudis not attending prayer time? I observe growing number of saudis now are not going to mosques during prayer time, they also waited outside the shop or malls just like the rest of us.....what's your opinion on this take?
