The Makciks & Saaf

If there's one thing that would put me off Tarawikh at the mosque this would be it. It's agonising to notice that there's a huge volume of unoccupied space that could fit jupiter between you and the person standing next to you and telling her to close in simply wont do your sanity any good because she just couldn't be asked to. That's the attitude of the makciks attending prayer congregations at the mosques, they who don't know the rules and don't see the point of heeding to a mid-20s. It's frustrating that ever so often you cannot concentrate on Tarawikh for example, because you are conscious of the hole. And because of that hole, you can feel the draught swept by the ceiling fans violently billowing your telekung and you become even more conscious. It's like a perpetual cycle. It's crazy I tell ya. Pls, someone, how do we educate them?
