A very big event going on in Qatar now is that people are debating whether or not Qatar should be able to host the 2022 FIFA World Cup. People think that such a small country in the summer heat should be able to host the World Cup. I think this ties into our unit because this has to do with Culture. Having the world cup every four years is a tradition that the world has held and celebrated for a while. This has to do with popular culture too because I think that holding the world cup in big venues and multiple stadiums required for this is pop culture since these are western ideas and big intricate stadiums, and lots of planning and money that have to go into this. The world cup in general I think has to do with our unit since it brings everyone together, where we sometimes use a lingua franca, so we can all communicate together.

Islam is a monotheistic religion since it only worships one God, which is Allah. Muslims worship usually by praying and worshiping Allah, this can be done inside or outside of the Mosque but you always have to be facing in the direction of Mecca.
