I'm looking forward to visiting the UAE again. It was such an amazing trip, full of welcoming people, lots of learning about the culture, beautiful landscapes, great food, great new experiences lived... Everything! It was a perfect trip for me and my family, we loved every minute of it. It's so good when we learn so much during a new trip, I'm just glad and happy.

In older days owning a camel is an equivalent to owning a Ferrari lmao

[@mdm7387]

[@manilainbicol]

Very nice explanation

[@RinnzuRosendale]

Oh cool. Everything is so traditional. In the west its "This suit is cut at the breastcoat because it looks cool." 🤣

[@isuluke2010]

Thank you, this was really informative. I've been wondering about it and finally looked it up today. I Honestly think the Kandura looks really sharp. I'd never be able to pull it off tho.

[@kasunmaduwage2316]

So cool ...

[@zbyneknovotny9002]

One by one 👏

[@jomiongoo]

culture is key and important.

[@tlaughon1]

Cool music

[@rrcw320]

These are great videos. Thank you very very much for them

[@WarsunGames]

This is WAY more informative. Nothing to do with religious beliefs or anything of the such.

[@MMA_editz]

There are still certain aspects of religion like modesty.

[@jerinkodiyan411]

Liked tarboosh 😊👌 interesting

[@zt1997]

Thank you so much! It is very interesting and informative.
There is one question I'm curious about: do men have to kandura and ghutra or is it allowed to wear other things like t-shirts, jackets, etc for Emirati men?

[@zayanrishad3109]

it is allowed, there are no restrictions on wearing t-shirts and pants

[@colbjallen8334]

I like it

[@kesolkesol1100]

asalamualaikum...

[@AbdulMajid-un1vx]

Is it important to wear turbosh now in 2024 is it look good

[@mpn2128]

👌👍

[@Mcq48]

I wonder how cheap/expensive a kandura is? I guess just like European suits you can get really cheap ones and stupidly expensive ones .

[@bernabetorres864]

He mentioned having your measurements taken for the sizing but as you said just like in western cultures there are mass-produced suits at like Banana Republic that are less expensive than tailored so it's more than likely the same for kandura's

[@comradeleppi2000]

He is funny.

[@Alexander-lo3vf]

🙂

[@slowpoke96Z28]

So I can look like a rich oil baron with a Bugatti now...

[@fozianaveed6145]

@Zayed Khaleel you shut up

[@hafsaummmusa9923]

Music was way too loud and it was hard to hear him.

[@shemholmes8293]

so are emirati's Muslim, i heard him mentioned prayer?

[@comradeleppi2000]

Yes.. Majority of them

[@smarttelevision5256]

Man I want to be emarati

[@uaelifeVlog]

owow

[@tomharry6999]

Please save indian Muslims from Hindus atrocities

[@comradeleppi2000]

Get out

[@strangevideosandaleatory1212]

Is this clothing typical of the countries of the Middle East or is it exclusive to Muslims?

[@hassanalyasiri2374]

Robson Rocha this is specially to emirati people.. each golf country has slight different Kandoora or dishdasha or thob , Saudi Arabia , iraq , kuwait etc.

[@mhb.i]

Not Exclusive...... But Sunnah of Prophet who was also an Arab..... Which was then called - Qamees - which was a long clothing that extended upto the ankle....

[@thestealth2448]

Maher Al Amir I thought the prophet wore an izar (lower garment) and a turban?

[@GreaterAfghanistanMovement]

@@thestealth2448 Sometimes he wore a thobe and sometimes a turban or a praying cap.

[@tomharry6999]

Indian government is taking away nationality of Muslims by citizenship amendment bill passed by parliament.

[@johnwalter6410]

Teaching the shal marood to the kefir is not good. Ah shalom abdulah
