This handwoven prayer rug displays the classic mihrab arch design in a rich palette of deep reds, navy blues, and ivory accents. The geometric borders frame the prayer field with traditional motifs that have guided Islamic worship for centuries. The central mihrab features intricate detailing with smaller geometric patterns that create visual depth and spiritual focus. The overall composition balances bold colors with refined craftsmanship typical of Afghan prayer textiles.

Woven by skilled artisans in Afghanistan using time-honored techniques passed down through generations, this rug showcases the exceptional quality of Ghazni wool known for its durability and natural luster. The 50-60 knots per square inch density ensures longevity while maintaining the flexibility needed for regular use. Afghan weavers take particular pride in their prayer rugs, understanding their sacred purpose and crafting each piece with meticulous attention to detail and spiritual reverence.

At 2' 9" x 3' 10", this prayer rug works beautifully in personal prayer spaces, bedroom corners, or as a decorative accent in hallways and entryways. The compact size makes it ideal for apartments or smaller rooms where you want to incorporate authentic Islamic art without overwhelming the space.
