A Cat Climbed Onto A Sheikh In Algeria While He Was Doing Nightly Ramadan Prayers But He Just Kept Going
Sheikh Walid Mehsa was unfazed and even patted the cat.
A video of a cat “participating” in a Ramadan prayer has gone viral on social media, and it is winning people’s hearts.
In the video, the cat was seen jumping onto Sheikh Walid Mehsas while he was leading the evening Ramadan prayer, Taraweeh, at a mosque in Bordj Bou Arreridj in Algeria.
Appearing undisturbed, Mehsas gently patted the cat with his right hand as the cat proceeded to climb on his shoulder and tried to kiss him.
Mehsas kept his eyes closed throughout the whole process and continued his recital.
The cat then hopped off Mehsas and wandered around the mosque.
The video has been widely shared on social media and has received millions of views.
During the month of Ramadan – which started on March 23 this year – many of the world’s estimated 1.9 billion Muslims will be marking the holy month.
