Now, Craun is spearheading the Global Prayer Rug Project, an international competition and local initiative aimed at showcasing innovative prayer rug designs from the U.S. and around the world.

While a roll of prayer rug measuring 100ft, on which 50 persons can offer prayer, comes at a price range of ?10,000 to ?50,000, the smaller rugs used by one individual, can be had for just ?270.
