Weather conditions in Dubai on Thursday will be mostly clear and sunny with a moderate breeze.

The forecast for Abu Dhabi promises a similar day of clear skies and light breezes.

The National Centre of Meteorology is predicting fair conditions for the UAE in general, but said moderate winds could cause blowing sand and dust.
Partial cloud cover in some areas could bring light rainfall, it said.
Night time temperatures could drop to around 35°C in Dubai and Abu Dhabi over the course of Thursday night and the early hours of Friday morning.

Islamophobia definition
A widely accepted definition was made by the All Party Parliamentary Group on British Muslims in 2019: “Islamophobia is rooted in racism and is a type of racism that targets expressions of Muslimness or perceived Muslimness.” It further defines it as “inciting hatred or violence against Muslims”.
How much of your income do you need to save?
The more you save, the sooner you can retire. Tuan Phan, a board member of SimplyFI.com, says if you save just 5 per cent of your salary, you can expect to work for another 66 years before you are able to retire without too large a drop in income.
In other words, you will not save enough to retire comfortably. If you save 15 per cent, you can forward to another 43 working years. Up that to 40 per cent of your income, and your remaining working life drops to just 22 years. (see table)
Obviously, this is only a rough guide. How much you save will depend on variables, not least your salary and how much you already have in your pension pot. But it shows what you need to do to achieve financial independence.
