Had a scary near-miss today, and honestly, it left me wondering — how can parents be so careless when their children’s safety is at stake?
Inner residential roads may look quiet, but parked cars, blind spots, and a child suddenly stepping onto the road can be a recipe for disaster.
Thankfully, nothing happened this time. But what if it had?
Parents, please keep an eye on your kids. Drivers, never let your guard down. It takes just one second for a normal day to turn into a tragedy.

Any idea how to dispute this fine ?

Hi everyone,

I'm looking for doctor recommendations. I have severe joint hypermobility which is now causing nerve compression/pain in my right arm and shoulder.

Back home, hypermobility isn't widely recognized, so I’ve never been formally diagnosed. I really want to avoid wasting time and money (especially since I don't have insurance) on doctors who will dismiss it or just tell me to stretch.

Does anyone know a specific Rheumatologist or Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation (PM&R) / Physiatrist in Sharjah or who specializes in or is highly knowledgeable about hypermobility spectrum disorders / EDS?

Any leads on hypermobility-aware physical therapists in the area would also be highly appreciated. Thank you!

Hello,

I need a carpool from RAK to SHJ today evening.

Office ends: 5:00PM

I live near Al Jubail bus stop in Sharjah.

The person that I travel with everyday is staying back in RAK for the weekend.

If anyone's travelling this route, can you give me a ride?

Around Madam and Nazwa

I received a fine for “Non-Compliance with Traffic Compulsory Lane for light vehicle” from Sharjah Police on Al Etihad Road this morning.
I need to take the right on Al Etihad Road to go to Chubby Cheeks Nursery at Bin Ham Tower, which requires staying in the extreme right lane from the beginning. However, the policeman seemed to think I was joining the traffic heading towards Dubai.
Can this fine be disputed if I was trying to take the correct turn?
If not, what’s the alternative route to reach Chubby Cheeks Nursery without facing this issue again?
Would appreciate advice from anyone familiar with this route. Thanks!

I usually get my coconut water from viva. Is there any cheaper (or same priced) alternative? Ideally pure coconut water would be the best but anything works.

While moving out, I have already listed individual items for sale on Facebook Marketplace, Dubizzle, and similar platforms. However, I am now left with items that may not be easy to sell individually.

Looking for suggestions on how to sell the following items:

• Cardboard boxes: Small to large sizes
• Books: Including course books, which could be sold to scrap dealers only, since unique field
• Plastic utensils
• Plastic household items (other scrap kind of items)
• Steel utensils

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Where can i find??

Hello everyone. I would appreciate some legal guidance from anyone familiar with UAE consumer protection laws, particularly in Sharjah.

If a customer purchases a service package from a clinic or service provider but decides not to proceed with all the procedures or services included, can they request a partial refund for the services that were never performed, even if they signed an agreement stating that payments are non-refundable?

If the establishment refuses the refund based on that clause, what legal options are available to the customer in Sharjah?

Has anyone experienced a similar situation and successfully resolved it through consumer protection authorities or the courts?

I would especially appreciate advice on:

Whether a non-refundable clause can prevent a customer from recovering payment for services that were never performed.

Which authority or legal process would be appropriate if a consumer complaint has already been closed without resolving the dispute.

Whether there are any affordable or free options for pursuing a civil claim in Sharjah.

I have already tried administrative complaint channels and am waiting for further responses. Before considering court proceedings, I would like to understand my options and whether pursuing the matter is practical.

I would be grateful for advice based on UAE law or firsthand experience. Thank you.

Why there is no traffic on al wahda road sharjah to dubai

hey everyone

i’m about to start my driving classes in sharjah and i’m looking for some feedback. I’m trying to find the balance between training quality, waiting times and total cost.

My situation: I have a Dubai employment visa. I’ll be opening my file in Sharjah using my father’s tenancy contract as proof of residence.

I’m currently looking at these three options: Sharjah Driving Institute (sdi), Belhasa (Sharjah branch) or Nasserya

for those who already got their license in Sharjah which option would you recommend in terms of training quality, waiting time and overall cost?

Also how was your experience with class scheduling and how long you have to wait to book classes and tests and the passing rates

would really appreciate honest feedback before I open my file.

Hey everyone,
I need to get an extra wisdom tooth extracted and, unfortunately, I don’t have dental insurance.
Can anyone recommend affordable dental clinics in Dubai, Sharjah or Ajman that offer wisdom tooth extraction at reasonable prices?
If you’ve had it done recently, could you share roughly how much you paid and which clinic you went to? I’m especially interested in places with transparent pricing that don’t add a bunch of unexpected charges.
I’m willing to travel to Sharjah or Ajman if it works out cheaper than Dubai.
Any genuine recommendations based on personal experience would be appreciated. Thanks!

Hi guys, what the post title says. I want to buy a pack of 30, but I have never used the intensive one so far, and I'd rather use 1 than buy 5 to see if I like it, since this shit is expensive.

Does anyone have just one they are willing to sell to me?

I would really appreciate it.

Hey everyone 🤍

I'm honestly a little embarrassed to post this, but I'm going through a difficult time financially at the moment. I've been getting by on plain pasta for around a week and a half and I'm struggling to figure out groceries right now

I'm not looking for money... iff anyone knows of any resources, community groups, restaurants that giveaway free food, or even affordable grocery options that could help i'd genuinely appreciate it

Thank you for reading and I hope things get easier for everyone who's struggling right now...

Hi everyone! I’m planning to travel from the UAE to my home country and I’m planning to take my cat with me. I’m really worried about an issue with his pet passport.
My vet made two mistakes:
color: He wrote “Orange” instead of “White,” then corrected it using white-out.
Breed: He initially wrote “Mix,” then changed it to “British Shorthair” using white-out again. My cat is actually a Persian/Angora mix with long hair.
My cat is microchipped, and his passport has a sticker with the microchip number.
I’m worried these corrections and the incorrect breed description might cause the UAE authorities to reject his veterinary health certificate or prevent him from traveling.
Has anyone experienced something similar? Can I get the passport corrected or reissued while keeping the same microchip number and vaccination records? Should I contact the ministry or the vet first?
Taking my cat with me is absolutely essential, and I’m terrified of being unable to travel with him. Any advice or firsthand experience would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

My baby's two congenital defects were missed during the 5th-month anomaly scan at Central Hospital, Sharjah. Everything was reported as normal, but both defects were discovered after birth. Every doctor I've consulted has told me that these defects shouldn't have been missed.

Has anyone experienced something similar? I'd really appreciate hearing your experiences.

I need your legal advice regarding a rental dispute in Sharjah covering the period from July 2025 to July 2026.
I was staying in an apartment and paying the rent directly through Sharjah Municipality. I provided the owner with two months’ advance notice in December 2025, informing him that I would be vacating the apartment. I officially vacated the apartment on 3 March 2026.
Before vacating, I requested an inspection, but the owner did not show up. When I checked with Sharjah Municipality, I was advised that I could hand over the keys if the owner agrees to provide the NOC. Initially, the owner agreed to provide the NOC, but later changed his position and demanded two months’ rent as compensation before issuing it.
Following the court’s instructions, I proceeded with the necessary Sharjah Municipality and SEWA clearances. In June 2026, I obtained the NOC, and the municipality’s finance team confirmed that there was no outstanding balance at that time.
However, after the owner filed another complaint alleging non-payment, I unexpectedly received a message from Sharjah Municipality in September 2026 demanding approximately AED 17,000 under the old case, despite the NOC and the previous confirmation of zero outstanding balance.
Now, in the new case, the court has appointed a financial adviser,asking to owner to pay 3000

Please advise me
