Fanar Islamic Cutural Centre Tour - Doha

A group from the Expat Women's Club booked a tour of the Islamic Cultural Centre. We were required to wear the Abaya to enter the mosque, as part of the tour. These two ladies called "Fatima" and "Fatima" conducted the tour. They graciously answered our questions about Islam and their culture, and many things pertaining to women here, which we were very interested in.
It was a unique opportunity to talk to local women and after an hour and a half, it was a relaxed and friendly group. Surprisingly, the two Fatimas agreed to be photographed with us, very unusual.
