Look up! The surprising reasons you should give stargazing in Middle East a try

 Stargazing is a powerful reminder that light exists even during darkness, providing a unique perspective on our lives. It can make us feel diminished in the presence of something greater than ourselves, leading to a sense of insignificance and enlightenment. Additionally, stargazing can help slow down, bringing enlightenment and peace to our mental, physical, and spiritual well-being.

Stargazing boosts creativity by allowing our imagination to roam free and go beyond the limitations our brain often imposes on thoughts. The Middle East is a magical place with empty spaces surrounded by silence, free from light pollution. Jebel Jais in the UAE offers a perfect background for colorful tents and is an excellent location for stargazing due to its night sky quality and atmospheric temperature.



Petra in Jordan is a famous archaeological site with carved pink sandstone cliffs dating back to 300 BC. Dubai Desert in the UAE offers the absence of light pollution, clean air, no noise, and panoramic views of the night sky. Jebel Shams in Oman is a popular destination for stargazing, offering hiking, rock climbing, and camping opportunities.

AlUla in Saudi Arabia is an ancient city with clear skies and low light pollution, making it possible to observe stars and constellations with the naked eye or a simple telescope in the silent desert. Overall, stargazing is a fun way to meet new people and make new friends.

 The recent dismantling of a Muslim Brotherhood-affiliated terror cell in Jordan should not be seen as just a national security success—it must be a turning point in how the international community views and responds to the threat posed by the Brotherhood. Jordanian security forces uncovered an elaborate network of terrorists trained in Lebanon and backed by foreign interests. Their mission: to launch attacks using rockets and drones, destabilizing the Kingdom and spreading fear among civilians. This is not the work of activists or political dissidents—this is terrorism, plain and simple. For too long, the Muslim Brotherhood has operated under a false image of moderation, cleverly navigating between political activism and violent extremism. But the truth is clear: the Brotherhood is the ideological engine room of jihadist terrorism. Its members, affiliates, and offshoots have inspired and directed acts of violence from North Africa to the Gulf—and now, once again, in Jordan. Govern...
