Amazing

Another must do in the Emirates. If you are Muslim, you better come on Friday just before Friday prayer starts. This time all the usual restrictions for access are removed, arrests are not allowed in and you have an unobstructed view of all the beauty....More

Great Mosque to visit, however - time consuming visit

It is a magnificent Mosque. It is a must see - however, very time consuming for the amount you get to see, and leaves you standing in hot crowds. There are no entrance fees, or rental of robes, which is good. It was like queuing...More

We entered the mosque around 415pm 24 Dec. My husband's nail cuter, tiny round shaped scissors and a Swiss knife were kept at the security. He got back the first 2 items at the exit but not the last item. The Swiss knife has his name WT Leung engraved on it. This item has tremendous sentimental value and I hope that you will please find out what happened and return back to us. This is after all the Grand Mosque of UAE and we can't imagine losing something like this at the most sacred place of UAE.
