Yadda yadda, got job, considering taking it, doing research. Unable to find an answer to a bit of an odd question though.

I play a good amount of Dungeons and Dragons, and have a very nice set of custom dice. I know Islam has some very strict rules against gambling, and have some concern that they might get confiscated at customs.

Anyone have any experience with this sort of thing?

EDIT: So two schools of thought on this one it seems.

1) Yeah, no problem, fantasy gaming is prevalent enough that they won't think it's gambling paraphernalia (illegal in the UAE).

or

2) I am an ignorant western degenerate for asking such a stupid question. Do I also think that I'll have to ride to work on a camel?

But seriously, thanks for the piece of mind guys. They're a gift from a dead friend and I didn't want to take any risks.
