Genna-ivanovich - No This Is Not Padalka

Based from that repost, i remember there's muslim astronauts who celebrates Eid Ul Fitr on space!l And also, performed their 5 time prayer on there.

Sheikh Muszaphar Shukor Al Masrie bin Sheikh Mustapha, the first Malaysian astronaut.

Also shortly known as Sheikh Muszaphar Shukor, is a malaysian orthopedic doctor with Arab-Malay descent and in his leisure time, a part-time model.

With Russian cosmonaut Yuri Malenchenko and NASA astronaut Peggy Whitson, they go to the ISS on 10 October 2007 with Soyuz TMA-11.

The eid ul fitr was celebrated in 13 October.

Does he celebrate it? Yes!

Here is him, singing Eid Chants. We usually sing it before doing Eid ul fitr prayer. And some Eid ul fitr messages and greetings for malaysians (and muslims!) in malay.

Also, praying in ISS.

How about the wudu/ablution?

We usually using water, and its a must for using water. But, if water is not available we can do tayamum instead! (using clean dust)

In that 'always floating' condition is not really recommended to using water for wudu, the water particles can be spread around and broke the space station electrical stuff. So it's more recommended to do tayamum.

How about the kibla? Well, the position can be everywhere because well, he can't just wait till ISS rotates towards to the city of mecca right? He'll be losing his one of his 5 time prayer, and it's really confusing to set the constant kibla on space. You could check my recent repost for more further information.

But Wait. He is not the first Muslim who do that, in 1985, The first Muslim and arab in space, Sultan bin Salman al Saud also celebrating Eid Ul Fitr, fasting, reading Quran and praying in outer space.

Prince Sultan bin Salman al-Saud is one of King Salman bin Abdulaziz al-Saud son, and the first astronaut from saudi royal family.

His mission started on 17 June 1985 with Space shuttle discovery STS-51-G, carrying three communications satellites, Arabsat-1B, Morelos I, and Telstar 3D.

It's the month of ramadhan too.

Recently, First emirati astronaut Hazza al Mansouri also do his prayer on ISS too.

The third arab in space, first arab in ISS, going to space with Russian cosmonaut Oleg Skripochka and NASA astronaut Jessica Meir with Soyuz MS-15 spacecraft on 25 September 2019.

Maybe that's all! well...these people are really obedient when it comes to doing their religious beliefs heh, that's sounds interesting tho lol

And... I'm so sorry for my broken English!😅🇲🇾🇸🇦🇦🇪🚀🌟

Stay safe everyone, and always wash your hands!

How did i first get interested with russian cosmonaut-

um-- well-- im gonna tell it here.

actually this is asked by @la-francaise-de-coeur ! 

so....hmm...it started when i was on grade 5 elementary school (2015).

i read a library book IPTEK (science and technology book) on my school library. i found a part about space...im kinda curious about space...yeah...

 I go to the part "human in space". On there, i see cosmonaut Yuri gagarin, Valentina tereshkova, and astronaut Neil armstrong. i read it, and also i search them on google too. and i was like...wow...yuri gagarin and the others is pretty amazing! a space man!! great!!  he is quietly cute too....after i liked yuri gagarin and valentina tereshkova, i search another cosmonauts like Gherman titov, Andran Nikolayev, Valery Bykovsky, Alexei leonov, Komarov, and more of soviet old era cosmonauts.

when i go up to grade 6, i have a smartphone and i started to post space memes and arts on my instagram. on my school, nobody is know about yuri gagarin. they are just know neil armstrong, kinda sad tbh-- but on instagram, i found an indonesian friend who like/know yuri gagarin too! i was happy! because im indonesian! and the first space otp i made is, gagarin and tereshkova.HEHAHAHAaa~

When i graduated, into middle high school (2016) i watching a tv and they are talking about muslim astronauts. and i found one muslim cosmonaut named...Musa Manarov.

im very curious about him and i go to google to read a wiki about him. from there, i started to know his crew mate, Viktor Afanasyev. viktor...he is calm, cold looking person, and cool! i see manarov and afanasyev are looking friendly together on MIR...and...i started to ship them. i was so exited to draw their fanarts. *screams*

and from that too, there is another cosmonaut named helen sharman and sergei krikalev. krikalev... he is cool! i started to like him <3 and his crewmate Volkov and Jean-Loup chretien. since 2017, i starting too search new-era cosmonauts/astronauts like Sergey Volkov, Oleg Kornienko, Soichi Noguchi, Yuri Malenchenko, Scott Kelly, Chris hadfield, Paolo Nespoli and many more...

Its been 3-4 years i liked them. The cosmonauts. Cosmonauts.

Because they’re cool and an amazing hero.

“Can’t wait for Monday and work!”

You may be cool, but you’ll never be “match rotation with a dead space station and actually dock with and salvage it” cool

Happy birthday John Glenn (July 18, 1921 – December 8, 2016)

“[Earth] looked small, delicate, and fragile. And from space it looked like it could fit in the palm of my hand and would break if I dropped it. That’s how special our home is. That’s why we need to take care of it.”

“I am a stranger. I come in peace. Take me to your leader and there will be a massive reward for you in eternity.”

“Could this have just happened? Was it an accident that a bunch of flotsam and jetsam suddenly started making these orbits of their own accord? I can’t believe that. This was a definite plan. This is one big thing in space that shows me there is a God. Some power put all this in orbit and keeps it there.”

Guys please reply to this with what your url means or references I’m really curious

Oh god...my eyes...🙃😂 i appreciate this...👏
