Muslim Traveller Guide
Dubai is one of the easiest cities anywhere for a Muslim traveller. The UAE is a Muslim-majority country, so halal food is the norm rather than the exception, mosques and prayer rooms are everywhere (including every mall, metro station and the airport), and prayer times are widely observed. English is universal, and the Metro plus ride-hailing make getting to venues like the Dubai World Trade Centre and Expo City simple.
5 halal places to visit
The mosques and Islamic-heritage landmarks worth your time around the expo.

Jumeirah
Dubai's most photographed mosque and one of the few open to non-Muslims — guided 'Open Doors, Open Minds' tours run by the SMCCU.

Al Safa
The 'Blue Mosque', inspired by Istanbul's Blue Mosque — stunning blue tilework; tours available.

Bur Dubai
A large, historic mosque in the old town, steps from the textile souk and Dubai Creek abras.

Abu Dhabi (~1.5h)
One of the world's largest mosques — gleaming white marble and the world's largest hand-knotted carpet. A stunning day trip.

Bur Dubai

5 places to eat
