Our pride is in our nature… even in our prostration

On the 95th Saudi National Day, with the slogan “ Our Pride is in Our Nature ,” the meaning of pride and a deep sense of identity is evident in every aspect of our lives—even in moments of worship and prayer. Just as we take pride in our land and values, we should also take pride in taking care of ourselves and our health during prayer, so that our worship remains comfortable and pain-free.

The slogan of the National Day is “Our pride is in our nature.”

This year's Saudi National Day slogan reflects the core values of Saudi society: generosity, authenticity, ambition, a focus on human well-being, and pride in national identity. These values are not mere slogans; they are a way of life evident even in the simplest details of our daily lives—including our commitment to performing our prayers with peace and tranquility.

Glory and comfort in worship

• Prayer is a great spiritual moment, but many people suffer from knee or back pain due to using an uncomfortable prayer mat.

• Paying attention to comfort during worship is not a luxury, but rather care for the body, which is a trust.

• Choosing the right prayer rug reflects our awareness and self-image, and shows how we combine authenticity with health care.

Tips for choosing a healthy prayer rug

1. Choose a rug of suitable thickness (8 to 15 mm) to relieve pressure on the joints.

1. Make sure of the quality of the material—high-density cotton or sponge materials are better than thin carpets.

1. Avoid carpets that are too hard or too soft, as they can cause slipping or pain in the knees.

1. Choose a size that suits your height so you don't have to bend over too much.

1. Look for a prayer mat with a firm, non-slip design to maintain body balance during prayer.
