British sports writer Henry Winter published, on his personal account on Twitter, a video clip from the England national team's training at Al-Wakrah Stadium in Qatar - yesterday, Wednesday - with the sound of the call to prayer - for Maghrib prayer, as evidenced by the color of the sky at sunset - which clearly spread throughout the place.

Winter - a writer for the British newspaper "The Times" - wrote on the video: "The England national team's training in Doha amid the sound of the call to prayer."

The England national team went through its first preparations for the World Cup yesterday, after arriving in Qatar last Tuesday evening.

The video, which Winter shared, received wide interaction from bloggers on Twitter, and was watched by about 350,000 people in one day. A large number of Muslim tweeters praised it, talking about the impact of the call to prayer on hearing, while others questioned the author's purpose for publishing such a clip.

One of the tweeters wrote, commenting on the video: "This goal is that the World Cup is played every time in a different place every 4 years, to see different cultures, customs and traditions of different peoples."

Blogger "Abu Bakr" wrote: "There is nothing more beautiful than being outside and hearing the sound of the call to prayer."

On the other hand, one of the followers asked about Winter’s goal in publishing this, and he said to him: “Why did you mention that, Henry? What is the purpose? I am not a Muslim and I do not care personally, but your tweet stuck in my mind .. Why did I feel the need to mention it?” Winter, "because my brother is an imam, and the voice is very impressive."

Because my brother is an Imam and the sound is very poignant, Melody.

Why have you mentioned that Henry?

What's the purpose?


I'm not Muslim and it doesn't matter to me personally but your tweet stuck out to me as to why you felt the need to mention that?
