Bin Shabib Mall, Arjan: A Detailed Guide to Apartments, Shop Rents, Facilities and Location

Bin Shabib Mall in Arjan combines residential accommodation with shops and commercial spaces in Dubai’s Al Barsha South area. Property seekers will also find the development listed as Abdul Wahed Bin Shabib Building, while some advertisements identify its registered building name as Bin Shabib Mall (Branch). These names are useful when searching for apartments or contacting agents about retail units.

For prospective tenants, the development offers several apartment sizes alongside access to everyday shopping and dining. For businesses, its residential component provides a potential local customer base. Available advertisements cover smaller retail units as well as much larger premises marketed for healthcare and supermarket operations.

Research date: 11 October 2026. Rental figures below are advertised asking prices or portal-reported historical averages. Some source pages contain earlier listing snapshots, so prices and availability require reconfirmation.

Location and Building Overview

Bin Shabib Mall is located in Arjan, Al Barsha South 3, Dubai. It should be distinguished from the separate Bin Shabib Mall in Al Qusais Industrial 1. Searching only the mall’s name can bring up advertisements for either location, making the area name an essential part of any enquiry.

The supplied project information identifies the following building details. Propsearch’s indexed project record also confirms its 13-storey description, December 2021 completion and involvement of Rals Contracting.

Although described in building directories as a residential building, its property advertisements demonstrate a combination of residential and commercial uses. Square Yards also categorises the development as containing apartments, studios and retail shops.

Apartments: Types, Layouts and Features

The rental listings reviewed include studios, one-bedroom apartments and two-bedroom apartments. Their advertised sizes vary considerably, so the bedroom count alone does not give a complete picture of the accommodation.

Examples on Dubizzle include studios of approximately 462 to 618 square feet and one-bedroom apartments ranging from around 741 to 1,191 square feet. A larger two-bedroom apartment was advertised at approximately 1,642 square feet. These are individual listing examples rather than an official schedule of every layout in the building.

A landlord-side advertisement describes one-bedroom accommodation with built-in wardrobes, a refrigerator and cooking range, central air-conditioning and a central gas system. It also advertises direct access to the mall. Furnishing and appliance packages should nevertheless be checked for the specific apartment being offered.

Apartment Rental Prices

The following examples give a practical starting point for understanding advertised residential rents.

Source: individual advertisements displayed on Dubizzle’s Arjan building results page. These are examples, not a confirmed list of vacant units.

Bayut separately displayed a two-bedroom listing of approximately 958 square feet at AED 68,000 annually. The difference between that advertisement and the larger Dubizzle example shows why tenants should compare the actual floor plan, bathrooms, usable space and included facilities alongside the rent.

For budgeting purposes, AED 42,000 annually equals AED 3,500 per month, while AED 60,000 annually equals AED 5,000 per month. These are simple monthly equivalents, not confirmation that landlords accept monthly payments.

Asking Rents and Recorded Rental Averages

An advertised rent is the amount requested by the landlord or agent. A recorded rental figure reflects a registered agreement. The two can differ because of negotiations, apartment sizes, contract dates and the mix of units included.

Bayut reports the following building-level figures:

The portal attributes its transaction figures to Dubai Land Department data. These are portal-reported averages, rather than an independently retrieved DLD transaction extract, and they should not be treated as quotations for a particular apartment.

Rent-Free Offers and Payment Terms

Several residential advertisements promote one month of free rent. Such offers can affect the overall cost, but the wording needs careful attention: a free month could extend the occupancy period or reduce the amount charged within a fixed contract.

Prospective tenants should request a written breakdown showing the total payment, tenancy dates, instalment schedule and any separate charges. The landlord-side advertisement reviewed also mentions payment through multiple instalments, without establishing one universal payment arrangement for every unit.

Facilities Advertised for Residents

A property advertisement published by Abdulwahed Bin Shabib Real Estate lists the following facilities:

• Gym and swimming pool access.

• Children’s play area.

• Central air-conditioning and central gas.

• Security and CCTV monitoring.

• Direct access to Bin Shabib Mall.

• Covered parking for selected units.

The qualification on parking matters: an allocated space should be confirmed for the chosen apartment. The same advertisement notes that photographs are illustrative and the available unit may differ, making an in-person viewing useful before committing.

Shops and Commercial Rental Prices

Commercial rents vary widely because the available premises serve very different purposes. A compact retail shop cannot be directly compared with a fitted clinic or a large hypermarket.

The two smaller shop advertisements were updated on 8 October 2026 and identify the building as Bin Shabib Mall (Branch), Arjan. The pharmacy, clinic and hypermarket examples appear on Bayut’s building-specific commercial results page.

The pharmacy advertisement contains an area discrepancy: its main property field states 653 square feet, while the description mentions 874.89 square feet. The actual leasable area should be confirmed before comparing costs.

Using the advertised figures, the 559-square-foot shop works out at approximately AED 250 per square foot annually, while the 391-square-foot shop is approximately AED 371 per square foot annually. This calculation illustrates how widely asking rates can differ even within the same development.

Commercial Setup Costs Need Separate Attention

A furnished or fitted commercial space does not necessarily mean that every item is included in the rent.

The pharmacy advertisement explicitly states that its price covers rent only, with setup costs considered separately. The hypermarket advertisement carries a similar condition. Business operators should therefore request an itemised quotation covering the premises, equipment, fixtures and any additional setup payment.

The hypermarket advertisement also claims more than 800 occupied residential units within the development. This is an advertiser’s statement, not an independently verified occupancy count. Businesses assessing the location should inspect customer traffic, visibility, delivery access and competing outlets themselves.

Apartment and Shop Purchase Prices

A reliable, publicly stated sale-price range for apartments or shops in this specific Arjan building could not be established from the sources reviewed.

Square Yards lists apartment, studio and retail configurations under “Price on Request”, without publishing numerical purchase prices. Its project page alone does not confirm that a particular unit is currently available to buy.

Anyone exploring a purchase should first ask whether individual units are offered for sale and request documentation for the exact property. Prices from other Arjan buildings would not establish the value or availability of a unit in Bin Shabib Mall.

Dining and Everyday Convenience

One independently identifiable dining option is Daal Chawal, whose official website lists its Arjan restaurant at Shop No. 1, Bin Shabib Mall, Barsha South. The restaurant describes a menu focused on traditional South Asian food and lists indoor and outdoor seating at this branch.

This supports the development’s role as a place where housing and everyday services share the same address. However, a commercial space advertised for lease should not automatically be counted as a currently operating shop or service.

Nearby Attractions, Parks, Golf and Cinemas

The supplied location information identifies the following nearby destinations. Distances are approximate proximity figures and should not be interpreted as confirmed driving or walking routes.

Road layout, access points and traffic can make a journey longer than the distance suggests. Residents should check the actual route from the building entrance to their regular destinations.

Schools and Road Connections

Square Yards identifies Nord Anglia International School Dubai among the nearby educational options. Its location overview also points to access towards Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road and Umm Suqeim Street. These connections are relevant when assessing commutes and school journeys, although directory distances do not establish peak-hour travel times.

For families, the most useful comparison is the complete daily journey: leaving the building, reaching the main road, school drop-off and returning during busy periods. For commercial tenants, customer parking and loading arrangements deserve the same attention.

What to Check During a Viewing

For an apartment, request the exact floor plan and confirm the usable area, appliance package, parking allocation, cooling charges and maintenance responsibilities. Compare the actual unit with the advertisement, particularly where photographs or dimensions are inconsistent.

For a shop, inspect frontage, visibility, customer access, electrical capacity, delivery arrangements and the condition of any existing fit-out. Obtain a written statement of permitted use and a full cost breakdown before evaluating the commercial offer.

Bin Shabib Mall’s published listings provide useful rental benchmarks, but the final decision depends on the individual premises and contract. Residential rents are publicly advertised across several apartment sizes, while commercial opportunities range from compact shops to substantial fitted spaces. Purchase prices remain an information gap that requires a direct, property-specific enquiry.
