Jumeirah Mosque Open Doors. Open Minds.

After the daily visit to the clinic we stopped at the Palm Strip mall opposite Jumeirah grand mosque. Even better views of the mosque and Burj Khalifa. You can hear the Adhan (call to prayer) from the mall. When it was time for prayers i just crossed the road. The masjid is even more beautiful inside. once inside we are all the same from the millionaires with their expensive 4 wheel drive hummers, landcruisers and BWM's to the dock workers. No difference all muslims attending the friday prayers.
