Sharjah (/ˈʃɑːrdʒə/; Arabic: ‫ ةَراَّلٱ‬aš-Šāriqah, Gulf Arabic: aš-Šārja[3]) is the third-most populous city
in the United Arab Emirates, after Dubai and Abu Dhabi. It is the capital of the Emirate of Sharjah
and forms part of the Dubai-Sharjah-Ajman metropolitan area.
Sharjah is the capital of the eponymous emirate. The emirate shares legal, political, military and
economic functions with the other emirates of the UAE within a federal framework, although each
emirate has jurisdiction over some functions such as civil law enforcement and provision and upkeep
of local facilities. Sharjah has been ruled by the Al Qasimi dynasty since the 18th century.
The city is a center for culture and industry, and alone contributes 7.4% of the GDP of the United
Arab Emirates.[4] The city covers an approximate area of 235 km2 and has a population of over
1,800,000 (2022-2023).[1] The sale or consumption of alcoholic beverages is prohibited in the
emirate of Sharjah without possession of an alcohol license and alcohol is not served in hotels,
restaurants or other outlets in Sharjah, due to the Muslim majority in the area. This has helped
Sharjah increase the number of Islamic tourists who visit the country.[5] Sharjah has been officially
named as a WHO healthy city.[6] The 2016 edition of QS Best Student Cities ranked Sharjah as the
68th best city in the world to be a university student.[7] Sharjah is regarded as the cultural capital of
the UAE,[8][9] and was the Islamic culture capital of 2014[10] and Sharjah World Book Capital for
2019 by UNESCO.[11]
On 1 January 2022, Sharjah made history when its public sector adopted a four-day working week
and a three-day weekend, becoming the first government sector in the Gulf region and the entire
Middle East to fully adopt a four-day working week.[12]
