Minab is not far from Bandar Abbas. It is famous for fishing (especially shrimps) and for agriculture (especiallly date palms and mangoes). It lies on the main official road connecting Bandar Abbas, the Makran and the Baluchistan Province. The population are mainly Shi'a Muslims but Sunni minority do exist, and the language they speak is Minabi (locally Minow), a dialect which is something between Bandari and Balochi and Persian. Once a week, a well known bazaar called "Panjshambe bazar" or in Minabi language "Peyshambe Bazar" (English: Thursday's Bazaar) attracts people from all over Hormozgan, and beyond.

In ancient times Minab had the name of Harmosia (or Harmozeia).

  • Mosques and Imams National Advisory Board

    The Mosques and Imams National Advisory Board (MINAB) originated in the United Kingdom on 27 June 2006 with the aim of promoting best practice in British mosques. It is an independent self-regulatory body aspiring to build capacity in mosques, help deliver standards and ensure mosque personnel have a better understanding of British Muslims needs so that it can address any concerns more effectively. It works with and represents all Muslim traditions and schools of thought.

    Following the launch of the draft constitution in November 2007, there was a further process of consultation with representatives of mosques, Islamic centres, Imam training institutes, leaders and scholars. The consultation events took place in all the major cities in the UK and this work was undertaken by an interim steering group, composed of representatives from the four founder organisations: Al-Khoei Foundation, British Muslim Forum, Muslim Association of Britain and Muslim Council of Britain.

    Sit and Wait

    by: Manboy

    Everything is massive around me
    in my private reality
    With all this controlling me,
    what can I do but
    sit and wait
    for it all to happen
    Sit and wait
    for it all to take place
    As the night arrives I try
    to hold my thoughts,
    to keep them tied
    I'm kind of looking from the outside,
    unable to close my eyes
    so I just
    sit and wait
    for it all to happen
    Sit and wait
    for it all to take place
    The stars look small from here,
    like little lamps in the night,
    We cannot be seen
