Bordj Bou Arreridj (Algeria): A beautiful and heart touching video of a cat jumping on Imam leading Taraweeh prayers during Ramadan here in Algeria has grabbed the attention of social media users.
Taraweeh is the Special Night Prayers offered during Ramadan.
Muslims offer Taraweeh, also called as Qiyam, after Eisha prayers every day during Ramadan – the Holy Month of Fasting. (Click here to know more about Taraweeh).
Imam Walid Mehsas was leading Taraweeh at a mosque in Bordj Bou Arreridj, Algeria. A live broadcast captured the moment a cat jumped on his shoulder, adorably kisses him while the Imam passionately continued leading the prayers and reciting Quran in his mesmerising voice.
The viral video shows the Imam dealing kindly, and in a way that is better with the cat that we see trying to caress him for a moment, at a time when he was reciting verses from Holy Quran, then she climbed onto his shoulder, approached his mouth with her mouth, and then left him at a moment almost a second before he bowed.
