Recently, our eldest, (daughter Jessica) visited and toured Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque located in Abu Dhabi and although a long way from our home in north Missouri, it’s not far from her current residency in Dubai, UAE. For about $11 roundtrip, the two hour each way trip by bus is a bargain! Car rental is reasonable as well and requires an international driver’s permit.
Admittedly, when she posted these photos of her dressed in an abaya and shaya, it set me back a nano second. We just don’t expect to see her dressed in such. However, it is required cover for visiting the mosque – i would do it, too. Woman can borrow the long dress (abaya) and headscarf (shaya) from the service center at the mosque. More information about visiting this stunning mosque can be found at Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque Center
Cheers!
