Hi guys,

I am thinking of moving to Madina and wanted some advice.

I understand that Madina is a religious place and non muslims are not allowed entry into the centre and religious areas.

Does anyone have any experiences of life in Madina? Muslims or non muslims?

I am a muslim from the UK and I am thinking of moving over their for work and will be bringing over my wife.

I am concerned with Madina being a very religious place we will be very limited in what to do there. Any thoughts?

I hear it has 3 shopping malls and your fast food places to eat.

Weather is meant to be good and cooler there.

Anyone know what accomodation prices will be like there? Can you get a good standard of accomodation?

Would want at least a 2/3 bedroom incase we have family visiting.

I think i kind of prefer the idea of being in Madina than Riyadh but not sure pros and cons

Any advice would be appreciated and I understand non muslim expats may not have experienced life in Madina so maybe a hard one to answer.

Thanks

Nabz
