A majlis is a sitting room. It can be found inside the house or in a khaimah built outside of the house. Generally, it is understood to be the room in which the visitors are entertained by the host/hostess. Usually, tea or coffee are being served to the visitors along with date fruits.

Word of the day: khaimah is the Arabic word for tent. Salaam!
