How to Design a Beautiful Prayer Room at Home

Having your own prayer room at home is essential for praying and meditating in a peaceful environment. Thus, the prayer room should thoroughly reflect your faith and spirituality while encouraging you to spend more time there. When you are thinking of designing a prayer room, make it comfortable yet functional while avoiding all the clutter that can distract you from the main purpose.

Since we already have passed the spiritual month of Ramadan that greatly centers on the expressions of worship including praying, fasting, reciting Quran and giving charity, the spiritual energy remains there in our hearts and can be reignited. The Holy month of Ramadan gives us a sort of spiritual reboot and readily helps us to quit all the complications and dirt of our minds.

But the distorting aspect observed after Ramadan is that people often leave the spiritual momentum after this month and get back to the inappropriate routine for the next eleven months. In this post, we are sharing tips to revitalize the string of prayers through the aspect of designing a beautiful prayer room in your home.

Here we go!

Colored Walls

Walls are the first thing you notice after entering a prayer room. So it is always better to choose the color of walls that can uplift your spiritual mood.  Consider the lighter, softer or neutral tone colors to create a really peaceful and calm atmosphere. You can either make the whole room that color or simply choose to paint the focal wall for a decent look.

Smart Furnishings

It is not a good idea to overcrowd the prayer rooms, so it is convenient to stick with the necessities only. When designing a prayer room, consider how many people will actually use this room at once. If it is intended for the family or a group, choose a suitable space to accommodate them comfortably.

Seating arrangements could be made as per the preferences of the people. With few prayer mats on the floor, some chairs could also be placed in the corner of the room to facilitate people who cannot get down on the floor. Other furnishings include cabinets or chest of drawers to organize all the religious items at ease. Putting a lamp or two in a corner will really bring convenience to recite Holy Quran or read any other religious books.

Beautiful Accessories

To reflect the beauty and positive vibes across the space, choose some of the Islamic frames, inspirational posters, religious calligraphy or images to hang on the wall. Get a flower vase, candle sconces or candle stand for placing at the front to have a pleasing view. Another way to beautify the look of the whole space is to put some LED mini lanterns of different shades. You can also check out the Islamic decor accessories at themuslimkit.com and choose the one you like. If you are planning to sit for long in the room then put some comfortable pillows on the floors.

Convenient Flooring

Plush carpeting in the prayer space keeps the whole atmosphere peaceful and comfortable. The soft carpeting in the space will keep your heels protected from cracking in case of long sitting durations. But if you are having difficulty in installing wall to wall carpet then go for thick rug or mat. Portable prayer mats are one of the new items that are helping people to pray anywhere without any problem.
