    National Mosque: Cover up in the Mosque.
    We spent a lovely hour at KL's Nation Mosque (Masjid Negara). At the entrance you are greeted by a lady who helps you in to a smock like Galabaya and head scarf. Men too are to dress appropriately so its best not to wear shorts as you too will have to wear the smock. The Qur'an dictates that Muslims should lower their gaze and dress modestly, hence the galabaya. Inside there are pamphlets about the Mosque, its community and Islamic teachings. Masjid Negara, Jabatan Kemajuan Islam Malaysia, 50480 Jalan Perdana, Kuala Lumpur.
