Can you guys tell me what rules i need to follow when i go there?
also do women have to wear abaya or hijab there?

How fortunate you are.

I heard people have a midday nap,so when in Somalia take a nap after lunch till qoraxda cools down.
I also heard you have to wake up at the same time as everyone else or else quraacda ayaa lagaa dhameesani
