And when they finish my car change oil, their sketch also done with color.

I approached them and show their sketch...they are very  happy and took a photo of my sketch and sent to their friends.

I asked if it is Ok to take a photo of them while they are holding the sketch...they didn't say a word, took the sketch and pose.

After my Saturday activities and before going home.
I just park my car at mosque vicinity and start to sketch inside my car...yes inside my car 'coz until now Dubai weather still humid...its 35° hot outside. After few minutes, I took a photo of the mosque and went to community store for some snacks.

I ask the Irani store owner about Mosque name and as usual they don't know the name of the mosque but before I leave he called me and told me that the name of the mosque is "Ummo Yaya Masjid"
??? and I told him if he is sure about the name 'coz I will write it on my blog and he say..."hmmm, not so sure, better to go inside the mosque and read the name tag"...huh...???

I went inside the mosque and ask the Natoor (watch man) what is the name of the mosque. And even the Natoor not sure about the mosque name. Then...a community cleaner approached me and told me that the name of the mosque is Al Bara Bini Araf Masjid....now this is for sure.

I went back to store and ask the owner " how many years you are here in community mosque" and quickly answered 5 years..! Hmmm... did you know that the name of the mosque is Al Bara Bini Araf Masjid... he smile and shouted that " Now I know..!"
