Hi all,

I am an Indian Non Muslim expat who had recently accepted a job offer in Al Madinah. I am looking for inputs towards following points.

As I understood from the briefing that I am not allowed to enter the Holy Mosque premises but no restrictions in other areas to move around is this correct.
I am looking for a single or two bedroom furnished housing in Madinah is there any residential compounds available and shall be the price range.
What is the easy way to commute, Uber/Taxi or renting/leasing a car or buying one?
Which bank offers best services?
What about mobile services, Which one is recommended.
I am also offered a multiple exit entry permit how does this work is this valid for an year and does this help to travel monthly out of country without any restrictions.
