with all due respect but I dont think muslims or other belief has to trek just to go their respective temples to pray especially in a war torn area.Only members with strong faith do that.what about those faithfuls who are like those catholics in the malls? How do other beliefs deal with them? There is a passage in the bible where it say, "the shepherd left his flock to look for the missing sheep" and on this era, you have to reach for your missing flock . .
