Ramadan is here and with it comes a lot of opportunity to be with friends and family, perhaps at a magnificent Iftar for example.
And Ramadan is the perfect time to immerse yourself in culture and with Sharjah Museums Authority (SMA) offering free access to the Sharjah Museum of Islamic Civilization throughout the holy month of Ramadan, you have no excuse not to.
The museum will operate daily in two visiting slots from 9am to 2pm and from 9pm to 11 pm, except Friday when the museum will be closed.
Take note though as the evening hours will be adjusted during the last ten days of Ramadan to accommodate the heightened period of Taraweeh and night prayers while will remain closed on the 29th and 30th of Ramadan in observance of Eid Al-Fitr preparations.

Sharjah Museum of Islamic Civilization stands out for its architectural magnificence, echoing traditional Arab-Islamic designs.
Originating as a marketplace in 1987, its construction that covers an expansive area of 10,000 square meters, was inspired by the esteemed Natural History Museum in London, sharing the same exquisite stonework.
The museum’s architectural splendor is crowned by a central dome, resting on sixteen cement pillars, and adorned with a delicate mosaic of the night sky, created by a Welsh artist.
