I've seen at friends' Asian weddings - when the bride and groom enter the groom's house the Qur'an is placed over their head? Is that a Sunnah?

Hmmm.... Some fold the corner of the prayer mat at the end of their prayer? A superstition?

Muslims outside the Indian subcontinent find it OK to place the Qur'an on the ground. I've seen Muslims in Makkah doing that in Taraweeh - an Indo-Pak is shocked!

Indo-Paks say pointing your feet towards the Qiblah is disrespectful; others don't. Again is it in the sources? Perhaps it doesn't have to be?

I heard in a lecture that some Muslims force a prayer cap onto you in a masjid and think if you don't wear one your prayer is void!

Parents wanting a son in law to be a doctor, engineer or lawyer with a six figure salary, clean shaven, film star looks, very tall, big house and Mercedes car. They don't check how much he practises the Deen which should be the first choice!

Erm... Parents of the groom wanting to check the sheets to confirm the bride's state. This still exists in certain Muslim cultures and is sick.
