Er, yes but only on every 3rd Friday? I'm not sure what you mean. I know the Qu'ran even says there can be only 1 religion on the Arabian peninsula, but that does not mean much to most Muslims these days -except Al-Qaida, as they want US troops (and the Saudi Royal family they are "protecting") out of Arabia.

This argument about what Islam stands for is almost over the body-politic of Muslims. Al-Qaida want faith in Islam to equate to their violent extremist beliefs, the more that view is promoted by everyone else (as well as by Al-Qaida themselves), the stronger Al-Qaida are.

The real problem is that there is no non-extremist rival of equivalence to Osama, non-violent Islam does not have the same strength of message -or resonance in the media.
