Big Mosque in juffair. Reflecting Amazing artifacts of islam
Very pleasant. The tour was very informative. You don't just learn about the building but also get to learn and understand the core beliefs of Islam.
It's really nice to know the core belief of our Muslim brothers and sisters. My first time to enter a mosque (I'm a Christian). They will lend you an Abaya (a cloak wore by women) or a Thawb (an Arab garment for male) as the place is sacred for the Islam religion and you should not expose to much of your skin on places like these as a respect. We learned a lot on our visit here. It was like an educational tour for me and my friends. Not to mention the great architecture that the place showcases.
Beautiful building.
Women will be given an abaya to adorn before entering the mosque.
We also had a guide who helped us really under Islam. She was also kind enough to answer our questions.
This visit really helped me understand Islam and its culture much better than I did before.
If you are in Bahrain, you MUST go here
Beautiful structure. Offers tours for visitors. Has classes for locals. Get there early on Friday and expect a long time to get out with the congestion.
Really beautiful architecture at a massive scale. It also have a very serene religious feeling. They organize tours for non Muslims. A must visit in Bahrain.
I am not religious but visited for the building, I had a very good tour guide for our small party of six, the guide explained everything well and I asked multiple questions which were all answered. For those intrigued it is worth a visit. If you really want to understand or know more there's free books, real printed books and brochure type all absolutely free.
