MERAK sajadah mat / prayer rug is handmade, with tufting technic. Please handle your prayer mat with love and care. Here is how:

• Vacuum regularly – this is the most effective and environmentally friendly way of removing dust.

• Do not shake nor knock out the rug – the rough treatment can damage the prayer rug.

• Note that it is normal that the prayer rug will lose individual fibers when used. If you want to get rid of these excess fibers faster, you can vacuum the rug daily for 1 week.

• ·Airing will also refresh your prayer rug, but please avoid direct sunlight and fog.

• If you spill liquid on your MERAK prayer rug, it is best to absorb it with a cloth or kitchen towel. But do not rub it in, this will encourage the liquid to suck into the fiber.

• Stains can usually be removed with a stain remover for wool carpets or a detergent for wool. Carefully pick up fresh stains that are still on with a spoon or the back of a knife. Then remove the remaining stain with lukewarm water or a weak wool detergent solution and a soft sponge and dry with a towel, but do not rub.

• If the prayer rug is not used for a longer time, we recommend rolling up or covering it.
