As-salamu alaykum! I hope everyone is doing well. As some of you know, Eid Al Adha is coming up. It is the second Eid that Muslims celebrate. It falls on Jul 19, 2021 for some and July 20, 2021, for others (depending on the country they are in).

Eid lasts for 3 days but is usually the most celebrated on the first. You can read more about the significance of this Eid here. I am making this post to wish all of our Muslim community a very happy Eid.

Typically when celebrating Eid, Muslims will dress up in new/their finest clothes and prepare a wide range of dishes to eat on the Eid day. Some may also apply Henna on their hands. Usually they will meet friends and family on Eid day. It can be hard to enjoy celebrations due to the pandemic but know that we are here for you! You can share your happiness and wishes with each other on this post!

Even if you are not a Muslim, feel free to wish the Muslim members of our community ‘Eid Mubarak’ or a ‘Happy Eid’.

For those celebrating, I am interested to know:
○ How do you celebrate Eid? (Bonus brownie points if you can show us some pictures)
○ What are your plans for Eid day?


If a holiday/festival that you celebrate is coming up. Please tell us here so we can celebrate that with you.

Walaikum Assalam, Eid-Al-Azha Mubarak to everyone. May Allah accepts all of our silent prayers, replaces our sorrows with His countless blessings in the best manner, Ameen. Have a blessed one!❤

○ How do you celebrate Eid? (Bonus brownie points if you can show us some pictures)
We get dressed putting on our best clothing and celebrate Eid by greeting and meeting family members, relatives, friends, etc. We give charity in the form of food, meat, clothes, money, etc. We prepare special Eid feasts and distribute them among neighbors, friends, or the less fortunate people. For us, today is the night of Arafah so we would celebrate it the day after tomorrow.

○ What are your plans for Eid day?
To be honest, it is difficult to celebrate happiness when you have so many reasons not to be happy. Nevertheless, I plan to ditch this sadness by applying Henna Mehendi to myself; my mother's and sister's hands. ❤ which is my favorite part about Eid but I would be applying it after two years so I am super excited and looking forward to it. Also, I would help my mother to prepare Shirkhurma, Biryani, and Sevvaiyan. I used to spend quality time with parents and siblings hanging out on Eid but due to the lockdown, we are gonna be home.
