    Small prayers before meals is effectively religious iconography. So is muslums call to prayer. But are they prosthilitizing?

      iconography ī″kə-nŏg′rə-fē noun

      1. Pictorial illustration of a subject.
      2. The collected representations illustrating a subject.
      3. A set of specified or traditional symbolic forms associated with the subject or theme of a stylized work of art.

      An action is not iconography, though public prayer is absolutely proselytizing but how you think that relates to clothing standards is not clear.
