They have to pray in secret if they can find a place.<br />There is no place to pray in leading French museums like Louvre. <br />Muslims live in fear in France. <br />I'm not even sure whether French airports have any prayer room.<br />We should consider whether Muslims should go to France anymore.Shukrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07042373453607620578noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2274565568811063041.post-31341295024351947892018-08-27T14:56:03.447+08:002018-08-27T14:56:03.447+08:00Salam and hello Nesrin!

I am so happy my post was of some assist to you even though I wrote it five year ago, and I am glad that you had a pleasant experience as I did with the staff in the City Hall. (And I am very sure you enjoyed your time in Disneyland, it is the best!) <br /><br />My husband and I have also used our jackets/sweaters as our prayer mats - it works fine =D. Isn't it just lovely how accommodating the staffs are with our needs to perform the salah? I wish to visit Paris Disneyland again in the future <3Liyana Arishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13630886278188784304noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2274565568811063041.post-27122802594699607752018-08-22T08:33:00.025+08:002018-08-22T08:33:00.025+08:00Wè went there and followed your every instruction ...Wè went there and followed your every instruction and alhamdulillah Wè were able to pray. There was a long queue outside Thé guest relations and a very lovely dressed staff was asking everbody in the line for their requests. We were at the end of the line. I told her i wanted to pray. And she took us out of the line and leaded me to the room. She told me it was already being used and to wait for them . There were three People praying. I forgot to bring sth to pray on. I took out my cardigan and prayed on it. But there were the pictures of Walt Disney On the walls and they were in Thé direction of qiblah. 😯 thank you so much. There were so many Muslims .

I'm so sorry but I can't even remember the name of the place! But when you get to Paris Disneyland, you can get the big map which includes a list of restaurants available in the park and the type of food served at each place is listed down, so you can just look for fish and chips there! Hope you find it =)Liyana Arishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13630886278188784304noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2274565568811063041.post-28156414034361091742017-09-18T22:44:30.298+08:002017-09-18T22:44:30.298+08:00Assalamualaikum Miss,

I personally didn't really experience any form of discrimination, and probably had the same wonderful experience as anybody else.<br /><br />I'm aware of the incidents that had happened recently in Paris, and unfortunately, since I haven't been there since I left in 2013, I can't really answer your question. I would like to believe that things wouldn't have changed much since I left, but I really can't know for sure. I'm sorry that I can't be much help to you.<br /><br />I would like to think that you and your family will have an amazing time, and I pray and wish that you will. If you're really concerned, maybe it's better to ask a hijabi who lives in Paris, or recently visited Paris, as I think they would be able to help answer your questions much better.<br /><br />I hope you will find the answers you're searching for. When, or if, you do go to Paris, I sincerely hope your time there will be as magical as mine was!Liyana Arishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13630886278188784304noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2274565568811063041.post-15920424828099312772015-07-28T21:56:34.647+08:002015-07-28T21:56:34.647+08:00Hi I came across your blog whilst doing some resea...Hi I came across your blog whilst doing some research about planning our trip to DisneyLand.<br />We living in England, I wear Hijab (alhumdulillah) and myself, my husband and my three children are planning to visit DisneyLand in september this year. we are very concerned about coming to France especially after all the events happening concerning Muslims.<br />Please share some advice about visiting France (we want to stay in Paris for one night at the end of our trip before flying back to England) and visiting Disney.<br /><br />Will there be any problems with me wearing Hijab, staying in hotels or in the park itself?<br />Thank you, sister Faiza.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2274565568811063041.post-39887174044352987472014-12-08T12:29:10.518+08:002014-12-08T12:29:10.518+08:00Syukur Alhmdulillah.

I'm really sorry you had...How awful, Anonymous! I'm really sorry you had such a bad experience. I think you must have dealt with one of the less hospitable staffs. Unfortunately they do exist, like the guy i was talking about in my article above. I guess we can't count on every single Disney staff to be perfectly accommodating and understanding. But really, i always find the staffs to be generally helpful and friendly. My husband and i just went there again two days ago, on Saturday, and we had no problem getting a room for prayer—twice, in fact, for Asar and Maghrib.<br /><br />But i can definitely relate to your story. In the 20 times or so we've been there (we really do love Disneyland Paris!), we have encountered similar problems; the first time was when the rooms are apparently not available in Walt Disney Studios (i mentioned this as well in my article), but they did kind of give us a solution, which was to head to the other park. We almost missed our prayer though! The second time was when the staff made us wait for half an hour for a room, and we missed our prayer then. That was in Walt Disney Studios as well. In Town Hall, there was only a couple of times that we had to wait for a room, as the rooms really were being used, but we had to wait for no more than 20 minutes. This is why we've learned to not leave our prayers to the very last minute in Disneyland, by the way.<br /><br />But compared to these few incidents, we really had a lovely experience each time we were in Disneyland Park, and we are always looking forward to going there again and again. So it really is unfortunate that you had to go through that unpleasant experience! If you ever visit there again, i do hope you will meet some of the friendlier staffs and have a better time.Liyana Arishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13630886278188784304noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2274565568811063041.post-19362886600014087512013-05-13T08:13:50.148+08:002013-05-13T08:13:50.148+08:00Thank you for taking the time to comment, Puteri Y...Thank you for taking the time to comment, Puteri Yasirah Yusoff, and i certainly hope you will have a magical time in Disneyland as i did! =DLiyana Arishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13630886278188784304noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2274565568811063041.post-5896359489910856522013-05-13T08:13:11.304+08:002013-05-13T08:13:11.304+08:00Alhamdulillah.
