Wednesdays, including Sundays. It was also strange to see people praying
(祷告)in a certain direction! They have strict rules for women. They do not let
people see their faces in public. "I"hey do not let women drive cars, either. All
dresses worn by women have to cover the bodies completely. They believe that
women cannot be seen in public.
