Going to the masjid will give them knowledge about Islam provided that they respect the masjid and wear as should be.
In general most imaams will allow non-Muslims to enter the mosque provided they adhere to the rules and etiquettes set out for such occasions.
no mosques are for Muslim's only, if you are not a Muslim your prayers would be directed the wrong way. don't waste your time.

This is not true!! You can pray to God wherever you are whenever you want, regardless of the setting. Muslims want believers to pray and want people to become Muslims, so I don't see why they wouldn't allow you in. I would contact the imam first though just in case and to ask about what you can do to respect them when you're there (do they have you take off your shoes, etc). And make sure you're dressed very conservatively.
First of all, the salat or the Muslim prayer is prayed 5 times a day, but before one prays the Muslim salat, he has to believe in Allah the creator of the universe, and believe in the prophet Mohamed peace be upon him who brought the message of Islam, them he should also learn how Muslims perform ablution before prayer and also learn how the Muslims pray correctly the way it was taught by the prophet of Allah Mohamed pbuh, then of course he pray.
in brief he has to testify that there is no deity worthy of worship except Allah and that Mohamed is the messenger of Allah, then Pray how the Muslims pray.
Answer BThe answer above is excellent. For more information, Salat or praying is considered as the most important pillar of Islam because it includes implicitly all the Islam religion principles and pillars. You get out of Islam if you, as Muslim, deny the Salat knowingly and intentionally. So, it is logic for non Muslim if he performs salat to witness that no God except one and only one God (without a partner or son or father or companion) and that Prophet Muhammad is his prophet and messenger. This witness brings the non Muslim to be Muslim.things Prohibited during Ramadan daytime are well known: Abstain from eating and drinking, and abstain from coitus. After the Maghrib Athan, these things are allowed, till Dawn Athan. Any other things, have the same rules as other days, for eg: Slander is prohibited in Ramadan as in other days. Measuring on this rule, attending a nonmuslim marriage is fully allowed, but with sticking to Islamic behaviour, ie, no dancing nor drinking prohibited drinks as an example, and this of course is applied for Ramandan as for other days as well. The precious advice to be told here, is restraining the sight, as Prophet Muhammad advised.
Yes; as I believe; he/she can pray in a mosque. However, this should be subject to the following rules:
Answer:
There was one incident in which Muhammad allowed a group of visiting Christians to make their own prayers in the mosque.
Sometimes people who visit a mosque would like to join in and experience the prayers. Though I have not seen an objection to this, it would probably be preferrable if those non-Muslims were to stand at the ends of a row - or make their own rows. That is because the integrity of the rows (that believers are firmly next to each other in a straight line) is an essential part of congregational prayers.
Bettyoo8's Answer:
yes non- christians can pray in a mosque but there would be no point
Green colour means the of Muslims and white colour means non Muslims
Yes. Even Islam-derived religions like Druze, Baha'i, and Sikhism do not celebrate Ramadan. If a person considers Ahmadis to be non-Muslims, then the answer changes to No since Ahmadis do observe Ramadan. However, there is much controversy over whether Ahmadis are or are not Muslims by different people.
b I think
It is the fourth Islam pillar (in sunni view of pillars of Islam) that a Muslim should fast the month of Ramadan (the 9th month on Islamic Calendar) unless there are licit reasons not to fast the month or part of the month. However, voluntarily Muslims are encouraged to fast Mondays and Thursdays as well as the three days of the middle of the Lunar month (called alaiyam embid).
Well, it would be hard finding the prayer times and celebrating the Eid.
This may or may not be right but in class at school it was said because if you know that a prophet fasted for a long period of time, so to remember the story Muslims fast to and gain rewards, etc. At the end of Ramadan there is Eid, a religious celebration, where you have a big banquet! Ramadan is celebrated wherever there are Muslims who wish to celebrate it.
Muslims still must respect and co-operate with non-muslims.
on hijra 2nd year Ramadan 17 The Makkan non-believers, 1000 well-armed, attacked the Muslims at Madina. The Muslims, 313 in number, almost without proper arms came out of Madina and faced the Non-believers at the field of Badar (70 miles away from Madina) on 17th Ramzan, 2 Hijra. 70 Non-believers were killed, 70 were made prisoners. 14 Muslims were martyred.
Non Muslims don't go on Hajj.
First, it is not allowed for a Muslim; or even non Muslims; to judge on God commands whther fair or not fair. Second, it is fair for Muslims; and should also for non Muslims; to be forbidden from practicing dating. Islam teachings stricts any sexual actions to be only within licit marriage.
Yes, assuming that we are talking exclusively about Muslims, but there are exceptions. The Muslim female that has her 'period' or menstruation cycle cannot fast until it's over and she has showered along with going back into the religion of Islam. The really sick doesn't need to nor does the one traveling where they might not know day from night. Non-Muslims do not have to fast during Ramadan, because it is not their tradition, but in Muslim-majority countries, they should abstain from eating in public.
Muslims expected of the non Muslims to convert to Islam to prove that they are loyal subjects.
