$3 Alarm clock For those who live in close proximity to a mosque, the call to prayer at dawn is a difficult thing to ignore. An alarm clock-while not as dramatic as the real thing-does have the benefit of an on/off switch. Wajeh Al Sharq Trading, Bur Dubai Souq, 011-971/4-353-5957.

$7 Box of incense The aromas of the ubiquitous shisha often mingle with the wispy smoke of incense. Pick among various shapes and smells. Al Jaber Gallery, Deira City Centre, 011-971/4-295-4114.

$8 Pillow The cushions found in the Middle East are good for more than just lounging: Each is a work of art, with intricate embroidery and rich colors. Al Jaber Gallery, Deira City Centre, 011-971/4-295-4114.
