A new and improved Muslim prayer counter that is used in displaying the number of times prayers are said through the number of times a switch is contacted by a user's head comprising, in combination:

• a rug having a short upper edge and a parallel short lower edge with long parallel side edges therebetween, the rug having an exposed planar upper surface and a lower surface adapted to be supported on a floor;
• a counter secured to the upper surface of the rug adjacent the upper edge in proximity to one side edge thereof, the counter also including a slide button adapted to be contacted by a user to turn on or off the counter;
• a switch located on the upper surface of the rug mid-way between side edges;
• a battery secured to the lower surface of the rug adjacent to the upper edge in proximity to the counter with an associated pocket for removably receiving the battery for replacement purposes, the battery including an electrical line coupling the counter with the battery and with associated electrical lines coupling the battery and the counter, and the switch and the counter, the switch adapted to generate an electrical pulse to the counter for each time the switch is contacted and to advance the counter by one on alternate contacts of the switch by the user whereby the switch will read a whole number corresponding to half the number of times the switch is contacted.
