If you can only visit one mosque while in UAE and it isn't the SZ Grand Mosque, then the Jumeirah Mosque is your second best choice, but there's nothing impressive about it, what makes it interesting is all the information they give out on the tour.

If you get to the mosque at 9:45 you can go for the 10am tour, the only tour of the day and the only mosque in Dubai open to non - muslims. It is worth doing as you get to leatn a little bit about Isalm, why not when you are in an islamic country? The mosque is a beautiful... More

Located in Jurmeirah Beach Rd. Guided tours explaining some of the Arab culture and about Islam. Well worth a visit. Proper dressing, for those who is not, Abaia or Dishdasha can be borrowed free at the entrance. The entrance fee is 10 AED.

We arrived early to the visit at the mosque, at 9.40. There were many people but the queue didn't last long. You pay 10drh each. Try and remember to cover your shoulders and legs if you are either woman/man. Women will also be asked to cover their hair. You can bring your own or they will supply one to you.... More

The tour of the mosque was excellent. It was given by a lovely lady called Latifah, a Londoner who converted to Islam 20 years ago. Whether you view Islam favourably or not, and whether you know much about it or not, it's a truly educational and interesting talk and there are no questions they won't answer. I liked the way...

We went on the tour of the mosque, which is part of the SMCCU. It is only at 10am and not on Fridays. The mosque itself is gorgeous, but not very large, so don't expect an expansive, several room tour. But well worth the 10Dirham.

Beautiful architecture. I never went inside so cannot comment any further. There are many mosques in Dubai and they all look similar to me.

Learned a lot. Tour started on time, very well explained and you can ask any and all the questions you may have. Ladies must cover their hair with a shawl (they will lend you one if you don't bring one). Girls don't have to cover their hair. You can take pictures and videos inside the Mosque. Good Experience.
