    Hi Riaz, I could not find a mosque very close to the meeting point but I found one at Adnoc while searching along the route on Google Maps.

    Perhaps you can search too and stop over and pray on your way. To me it was displaying a 5 minutes diversion when coming from Dubai. It is a 5 minute diversion from the route but still quite far from the meeting point so please keep that in mind. Thanks.

    Hi, there is a mosque at the ADNOC petrol pump just exiting Emirates Road (E611). As Hamza said, you will need to account for the time from there to the meetup point, which would probably be around 15 to 20 mins drive

    No, it’s not at all a problem. The marshals will have the tow rope. See you there! 😁
