Do Middle Eastern people wear sandals because it's religious?

I see Middle Eastern people wear sandals all the time. In the middle east, it%26#039;s hot there, so I can see why they wear sandals there. But I hear the ground temperature is more than 150 degrees. At that temp your feet would fry, so how can you wear sandals there.





I also see Middle Eastern people wear sandals even in cool places, like the mall. It%26#039;s not hot there, so why wear sandals there? Is it religious or something?

Do Middle Eastern people wear sandals because it%26#039;s religious?
No has nothing to do with their religion ,just custom.

Reply:Have you asked this already? Not all Middle Easterners are Muslim, I for one am Assyrian and Christian (from Iraq). There is no such thing as wearing sandals as being religious.
Reply:what do you mean when you say Middle Eastren, i think you mea people in gulf country.


i am from Syria and we dotn wear sandals at all, some people do it and our country not that much hot,


also there in gulf not all of them wearing sandals, any way to wearing sandals it is jsut belonge to the nature of their country and the way they are lining, some people still living as beduin and they dont need to think about wearing.
Reply:it%26#039;s cultural and yea, cause it%26#039;s hot. When you were sneekers, your feet sweat and stink. Muslim need to be clean and clear in order to pray so, no stinking allowed.
Reply:Not religious like its part of our faith but our prophet Mohammad peace be upon him told us that we try not to wear sandals all the time neither shoes. Some times wear this other times wear that. Add to this that it is a part of our culture and I dont be bothered by the heat. though chill bothers me some times.
Reply:It is custom, it has nothing to do with religion, it is because it%26#039;s too hot
Reply:Not everyone in middle east wears that, and if u see someone does that, where%26#039;s the religous thing in that? don%26#039;t afraid, we don%26#039;t adore sandals.
