World's first religious TOCTOU issue?

All sort of odd race conditions can spring up if you speed things up enough... What started out as east might not remain so for very long... very similar resolution to a more traditional TOCTOU issue, only one measurement of east is taken, and that is at the start of the prayer.

Did they ever figure out the "day" issue?

I saw an earlier article on this, and there was a question about how often he had to pray. As a muslim he's supposed to pray 5 times per day, but what is a day when he's going around the Earth that fast? From sunrise to sunrise? If so, then he's going to be praying a lot!

Apparently is it all sorted now
