Mosques & Churches are going to open

Mosques, Churches & Mandirs are going to open from tomorrow in all over UAE.  People should maintain safe distance between them during visits, keep using masks and avoid visits if there are flue or cough symptoms.  Try not to visit if your age is 50 plus and not bring children also less than 12 years old.

Driving License without NOC

The rule came into effect last week across the UAE, making it easier for all, especially those in the low income group to learn to drive and enhance their chances of employment in the country.  Earlier, only people from 66 select professional categories were allowed to open a file for driving lessons without obtaining an NOC from their employers. Low income group workers such as waiters, domestic helps, shop salespersons and blue collar workers and some others were not allowed to start taking driving lessons without obtaining a permission from their employers. Now the new rule has ensured equal opportunities for all.  Following the federal decision, Dubai Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) has issued a circular to driving schools in Dubai informing them about the new regulation.  “This is a very positive step because it will make it easier for all those who want to obtain driving licenses to open a file at any driving institute” said Fatima Raees, director of Customer Service and Mark

The Quran and Hijab

There are two issues about this sentence: 1. What is the meaning of “khumur” used in this verse? Khumur خُمُرٌ is plural of khimarخِمَارٌ , the veil covering the head. Al-Munjid, which is the most popular dictionary in the Arab world, defines al-khimar as “something with which a woman conceals her head —ما تغطى به المرأة رأسها .” Fakhrud-Din al-Turayhi in Majma ul-Bahrayn (which is a dictionary of Qur’anic and hadith terms) defines al-khimar as “scarf, and it is known as such because the hea

Dubai is going to construct RAINING STREET As Dubai is well known for its sun, sands and sea that has attracted visitors and long term residents for many years, but now it is hoping to make a splash with the unlikely concept of year round rainfall.  “Kleindienst Group” which is developing The World Islands off the coast of Dubai, announced the start of a one kilometre "Raining Street" at its Heart of Europe project. It says temperatures: which rise above 40°C in the summer across the UAE will be kept to 27°C, allowing visitors to remain comfortable while outdoors.  The rendering supplied by the company shows visitors carrying umbrellas to stay dry as they gather in the boulevard in scenes more akin to Glasgow than the Middle East. Raining Street Theme And Kleindienst Group confirmed to The National that visitors will need to be prepared with an umbrella or for those who own a coat.
