What are flat, slipper-like shoes from the Middle East called?

Although I've read it several times, the third paragraph remains unclear to me. It seems to be an incomplete sentence and/or thought.

I've not heard of the babou have shoes 👟👟

these shoes can be shuffled off when one walks into a house, because Muslims take their shoes off when entering their homes.

Possibly referencing Caddyshack, but not really a relevant or accurate joke.
