Some middle eastern airlines have prayer rooms on their aircraft as well as indicators in the room so you know which direction Mecca is.

Etihad goes further and plays a short prayer before take-off. You can check where Mecca is at any time on your screen.

Not sure where I have read it, nor can I confirm but I remember they also try to avoid scheduling flights during prayer hours (if possible)

The sacred texts don't indicate what is appropriate to do while flying in an airplane?
Can't read arabic :)
