A young Muslim woman lays out her rug in a city park and begins to pray. Her fellow citizens react with a mixture of amusement, curiosity, skepticism and indifference. The woman quietly persists, and little by little, the park and its people are transformed. The world could use some transformation, too, I guess. Not that everybody will heed the call to prayer, or should. But it can't hurt to tolerate those who do.
