Where is the oldest sajadah preserved? In some museum?
The oldest preserved prayer rug, known as the Pazyryk Carpet, is not considered a typical prayer rug but is still regarded as one of the oldest surviving examples of carpet weaving. It was discovered in Siberia in 1949 in a burial mound called the Pazyryk Burials. The carpet is believed to date back to the 5th century BCE, making it over 2500 years old. The Pazyryk Carpet is currently housed in the State Hermitage Museum in St. Petersburg, Russia. However, it's important to note that this carpet predates the development of the more standardized prayer rug designs that are commonly used in Islamic prayer today.
