With gratitude to God and joy in their hearts, the families of Amara and Tariq request the honour of your presence.

Two families gather above the Gulf for an evening written in gold: oud at the doors, dates and gahwa in the majlis, a promise made between prayers, and dinner served under a ceiling of lanterns.

387nights remain
