21st Century Islam

Conservative Arab woman and contemporary Islamic architecture in Doha, Qatar.

Suddenly a woman came into camera finder when I was shooting geometrical patterns in MIA, the Museum of Islamic Art.

Summer temperatures in this city rises well above 45°C / 113°F during the hottest weather and the water in the pool is too hot to swim in.

I understood that full black abaya and face veil is fashion necessary to survive this hot summer.
