Oman's culture is based on the fundamental principles of Islam. Muslims are requ
ired to pray five times each day after the call to prayer by the Imam. Beautiful, ornate mosques are found throughout the Sultanate, but they are not open to non-Muslim visitors. The holy month of Ramadhan is a time of fasting. Women should wear, for example, tops with sleeves, and long skirts. Men are required to wear trousers and shirts with sleeves.
Regarding other religions, Oman is very tolerant and there are a number of churches and temples for worshippers of other faiths. Friday is the holy day of rest.
