By sharing this video a social media user named Nidae Izhar captioned in Bengali: “বিশ্বকাপ ফুটবলের মাঠের মধ্যে নামাজ “কাতার” যেন সমস্ত দিকথেকে ইসলামের সৌন্দর্য ফুটিয়ে তোলার চেষ্টা করে যাচ্ছে!”. Namaz “Qatar” in the World Cup football field is trying to capture the beauty of Islam from all sides!” ( English Translation)
