Rihanna was asked not to enter The Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque Centre, Abu Dhabi, UAE for taking pictures that do not conform with regulations put in place by the place of worship.
The Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque Centre said: “The Centre strives to ensure that visitors enter the mosque in a decent fashion, and refrain from behaving in any way that is inconsistent with the sanctity of this religious place...
...Here, the Centre refers to a recent incident, involving a singer who came for a private visit to the mosque, at a gate that is not reserved for visitors, without prior coordination with the Centre’s management and without identifying herself...She was directed by visitor services to proceed to the visitors’ main gate and take the guided tour, according to procedure...She left without entering the mosque, after being asked to do so, due to the fact that she had taken some pictures that do not conform with the conditions and regulations put in place by the Centre’s management to regulate visits in a way that takes the status and sanctity of the mosque into consideration.” |
