About Mihrabi Rugs

We are new venture that was started by Mas'ud Ahmed Khan webmaster of the well known site for Traditional Islam masud.co.uk who bought a Balochi prayer rug whilst on a visit to Pakistan and was so impressed with the craftsmanship and design that he decided to introduce this to others. What struck him was the variety and uniqueness of each rug that is dramatically different to the mass-produced, machine made and synthetic prayer mats that we are all so used to. The rugs are truly a work of art that would adorn your sacred space.

These rugs are handmade and made with the intention that someone is to pray on them, each rug is made by more than one person using knotting and weaving techniques handed down generation after generation. We are told by our supplier that prayer rugs and mats are not being produced in the numbers that they once were due to the prevalance of the mass-produced and very cheap machine made mats.

The materials used are natural wool, cotton and camel hair and in most cases natural dyes. The rugs are hardwearing and will give many years of faithful service and many rugs have been known to last 50 or more years.

Mihrabi Rugs aims to bring you hand-selected prayer mats that will beautify your sacred space and enhance your sacred devotions.
