A teacher in Florida has been fired after a video went viral appearing to show her disrespectfully interrupting Muslim students while in prayer, reports say.

In the video posted to TikTok three young male students can be seen worshipping in Arabic on prayer mats when a teacher walks in, starts blowing a whistle, and repeatedly objects to them praying in her office.

The teacher can be heard saying: "Hold on, this in my office, and y'all doing this magic?" She then comments: "I believe in Jesus, so I'm interrupting the floor."

She walks through the group of students, at one point kicking one of the praying student's hands.

The students ignore the teacher and continue to pray. At the time of writing, the video had around 6.5 million views.

The incident took place at Franklin Academy, a charter school in Pembroke Pines, Broward County, according to Local 10 News. The teacher has not been identified.

The school said in a statement to the outlet: "Earlier today, a very troubling TikTok video was shared with our leadership team. The video appears to show a teacher interrupting students during a moment of prayer. Upon receipt of the video, organizational and school leadership began immediately investigating the situation."

The school added that it "does not tolerate discriminatory behavior."

"While we do not discuss personnel matters, we can share with you that the teacher in question is no longer a member of the Franklin Academy staff," the statement said.
