First Of All, Eid Mubarak To All muslims Around The World from Nivyan Asif And Knowledge Hub. Now lets Discuss The Topic.


Eid celebrations around the world share some common traditions, but also have unique twists depending on the country. Here's a glimpse into Eid festivities in Pakistan and some other places:

Pakistan:

  • Eid prayers: The day begins with special Eid prayers offered at mosques or open fields.
  • Family time and greetings: People dress up in new clothes and visit relatives and friends, exchanging greetings of "Eid Mubarak" (Blessed Eid).
  • Feasting: Pakistani homes are filled with the aroma of delicious dishes like biryani, seviyan (sweet vermicelli), and sheer khurma (dates in creamy milk).
  • Charity: Giving to the less fortunate is an important part of Eid, reminding everyone to share their good fortune.

Other Countries:

  • Indonesia: Similar to Pakistan, prayers are followed by family gatherings. Indonesians also visit the graves of ancestors and enjoy special treats like ketupat (rice cakes) and rendang (spicy meat curry).
  • India: Eid celebrations in India are very similar to Pakistan, with regional variations in cuisine and local customs.
  • Egypt: Egyptians attend prayers and prepare konafa, a sweet cheese pastry. Decorating homes with lanterns and spending time with loved ones are Eid traditions here.
  • United Arab Emirates: Eid in the UAE is a grand affair with elaborate feasts, exchanging gifts, and enjoying fireworks displays. Traditional music and dance performances add to the festive spirit.

These are just a few examples, and Eid celebrations vary across the Muslim world. But the common thread is a spirit of joy, gratitude, and togetherness.
