Prayer Rug, Prayer Mat, Sajjadah & Janamaz

Muslim prayer rugs are known by several names depending on language and community. Prayer rug and prayer mat are commonly used in English, while you may also see the terms sajjadah, sajada, janamaz or salah mat. These terms generally refer to a clean, designated surface used during Muslim prayer.

Styles range from traditional woven Islamic prayer rugs to plush and padded mats, lightweight travel prayer mats and decorative designs suitable for the home or as Islamic gifts.

Prayer Rugs as Islamic Gifts

A prayer rug can make a useful Islamic gift because it is something the recipient can use regularly. Prayer rugs are commonly chosen for Ramadan and Eid gifts, weddings, students, new Muslims and family members.

For someone who travels frequently, consider a lightweight travel prayer mat that is easy to fold and carry. For everyday home use, a traditional Turkish or plush prayer rug may be more suitable. A children’s prayer rug can also be a thoughtful choice for a young Muslim learning salah.
