Mohammad Rizwan offering prayer on street in USA sparks mixed reactions

Pakistan wicketkeeper-batter, Mohammad Rizwan, recently made headlines during his stay in the United States of America (USA).

Rizwan, who was participating in an executive education program at Harvard Business School with his teammate and skipper Babar Azam, chose to extend his stay in Boston even after the program concluded on Saturday, June 3. It was during this period that an incident involving Rizwan offering prayers on the street caught the attention of social media users, sparking a wide range of reactions from people across different backgrounds.

The video of Mohammad Rizwan offering Namaz on the street in the US quickly went viral, drawing both positive and negative responses. Some individuals praised Rizwan's dedication to his faith and appreciated his commitment to observing his religious obligations.

 

 

On the other hand, there were those who expressed criticism and skepticism towards Rizwan's actions.

 

 

 

Some questioned the need for him to pray on the street, suggesting that there should have been alternative places for him to worship.

 

 

Others raised concerns about the potential disruption caused by his prayer, as well as the perceived blurring of the separation between religion and public space.

 

 

Rizwan, in particular, is known for his efforts in spreading the message of Islam through his speeches at various mosques during his cricket tours to different countries.

On the last day of the program, Rizwan went a step further by gifting a Holy Quran to his teacher from the Harvard Business School's executive education program. This gesture not only showcased Rizwan's gratitude for the opportunity but also demonstrated his commitment to his faith and its values.
