Causeway Point Has Prayer Rooms On Level 5 For Muslim Shoppers

Prayer rooms in public places have increasingly become a norm in Singapore, but when establishments make the effort to provide them, the public is very much appreciative.

Such was the case at Causeway Point, which revealed its new prayer rooms recently.

The mall’s Facebook post about the facilities went viral, with many users expressing their thanks in the comments.

One visitor who claimed to have tried to use the rooms before shared that signs on the doors state that they’re open from 11am to 10pm daily. However, when they went there at 1.30pm on a Saturday, they allegedly couldn’t enter.

The visitor thus urged the management to ensure that the rooms are open during the stated hours so everyone can use them with ease.

 

If you happen to be in the area and need a convenient prayer space, you can simply drop by the mall. Here’s how to get there:

Kudos to the mall for being inclusive

Causeway Point stated in their Facebook caption that they hope to provide a “safer and more inclusive environment” for shoppers and they’ve clearly succeeded.

Here’s hoping many people can benefit from the new amenities.

Folks shopping in the East may want to use the prayer rooms at Century Square for their daily prayers. Visitors to Bird Paradise can enjoy similar conveniences too:
