Intense passion for swimming

Finding a lanky boy in a dark red T-shirt wandering around as though he had just returned from his regular daily swimming practice was obviously a total surprise. This  was not the case at all. He can't explain why he decided on routine swimming, despite his considerable height. He didn't appear to realise that the chlorine in the water would turn his face dark. He and two other older boys were swimming without realising this important fact. This will continue for a minimum period of one full month, as was revealed. Every day, these three lads go to a nearby pool to practice swimming. But the younger one did not go for the usual practice  on the particular day since he had developed a slight cough, which was definitely learned following his smart disclosure in the night.  He seemed to be unaware of the fact that chlorine in the water would darken his fair face.

Rush at mosque stuns devouts

Those who grabbed the criticism only smiled, acknowledging the impulsive question.

The space of the mosque was adequate with its full capacity on the first floor. There was no vacant space so some had to offer prayer just at the last smaller space. Such surprising scenes take place rarely. Existing upon the roadside,  the mosque pulls the devouts to join prayer at all five times. The time for the night prayer has been fixed at the earliest hours. So those who want to complete their prayer early flock to pray at this very mosque. 

One of the five daily Islamic prayers that are required at the start of the night is the Isha prayer. Just as the devout Muslims pray at the start of the day so as they end their daily count of prayers in the night.
