Blue Mosque Dress Code & Etiquette – What to Wear

Keep it simple: shoulders and knees covered. Head covering is optional for non‑Muslims but appreciated during prayer windows. Staff may provide wraps; bring a light scarf to be safe.

Coverage Basics

• Tops: short sleeves fine; no sleeveless, deep cut.
• Bottoms: trousers, long skirts; avoid shorts above knee.
• Footwear: keep on unless entering designated prayer carpet zones.

Borrowed Coverings

• At busy hours, wraps and scarves may be available.
• Return borrowed items at exit points; keep them tidy.

Photography Etiquette

• No flash during prayer; avoid pointing the lens at worshippers.
• Tripods discouraged; be quick and considerate.
