No Priests

The person who leads the prayer
is called Imam in Arabic.

A person who has good knowledge of Islam
and is able to recite The Qur'an well
and lecture to the gathering during
the Friday noon prayer is appointed
as the Imam of a Mosque.

The Imam is not a priest in that he is not
an intermediary between God and man.
Muslims seek the Mercy of God directly.
