Dress code for women at the Grand Mosque:

• You must have arms and legs completely covered
• Your hair must be completely covered
• The only skin that can show is your hands, feet, and face
• If you are not properly dressed (don’t worry, this applies to most tourists) you will be sent to the dressing room where you can hire an Abaya (which covers your body) and Shayla (which covers your head). This is all part of the experience so embrace it! Please don’t think this means you should wear the skimpiest outfit underneath! You will still be lining up with other Muslim tourists and respect should be shown throughout your visit to Abu Dhabi

Dress code for men at the Grand Mosque:

• Men should have long trousers with legs completely covered and shirt sleeves (at least elbow length)
• If you are wearing shorts, you will be asked to enter a dressing room to hire (for free) a Kandura for your visit. [As above, due to COVID regulations this option appears not to be available since 2021 – come with your own appropriate long trousers or risk being turned away]

Shoes inside the Grand Mosque:

• If you don’t want to walk around inside the Grand Hall of the mosque itself on bare feet you will want to make sure you bring your nicest socks!

Dress code for children at the Grand Mosque:

• Pre-pubescent children are free to dress as they please
• From early puberty and beyond, particularly for the girls they will ask that the same dress code for women entering the Grand Mosque be followed
