Pope Francis Joins Muslim Clerics To Pray At Mosque In Turkey

Pope Francis, who just concluded a state visit to Turkey, joined
Muslim faithfuls in Istanbul to pray at the Grand Mufti of Istanbul,
Istanbul Blue Mosque yesterday. The Pope stood with his head bowed and
hands clasped in front of him in 2-minutes of silent prayer inside the
17th-century Sultan Ahmet mosque, aiming to show respect for Islam and
encourage stronger ties between the two faiths.
