Simplicity Of Mahommedan Worship.--The
mode OF worship in the mosques is extremely
simple. Every one, upon entering, engages in
private devotion; and all, from the sultan to the
meanest peasant, are upon an equality within the
mosque. After the private devotions are con-
cuded, the assembly is addressed by the priest in
a discourse generally illustrative Of the practical
duties Of life. Among all the different forms of
false religion, there is none less revolving to the
Christians feelings than that of the Arabian inn
postor They acknowledge the true God, and his
son Jesus Christ, and many Of the Patriarchal
fathers, and old Testament records; but have min
ged up with the simple worship of Christians,
many of the traditions of the Jews, and still more
Of the inventions of that ingenious usurper, who
knew well how to pamper the depraved appetites
OF those over whom he sought TO weave the web
of his new religion, in which he declares himself
to be the Prophet of the Most High.
