The Central Souk - Sharjah



This is a partial view of the Central Souk in Sharjah - called As-Souq al-Markazi in Arabic (السوق المركزي). It is an indoor shopping center and one of the known markets for buying 'abayas, the other place being outdoors in a different part of the city. However we must warn the sisters not to waste their time searching for over-head jilbaabs, because as surprising as it may sound, they are not typically sold in the country it seems due to the current trend being different, AllaahulMusta'aan, and the one or two you may find will probably not be of the best material. But the good news is that there are plenty of tailors available at low cost but who truly do an excellent job in making just the perfect over-head jilbaabs with the best material if you give them a sample, and they can turn out to be much better than the read-made ones you may buy from elsewhere.

All praises and thanks are to Allaah (subhaanahu wata'aalaa) alone
