Eid mubarak, brothers and sisters! We had our festivities today, but I'm sure there are some of you out there in the world who are still waiting for it for another few hours in your own countries. I hope you had a good month and that you and your families are all well and happy! Well wishes and see you in space!  Please visit your user settings to re-enable images. |

== Eid mubarak (Persian/Urdu: عید مبارک) (Arabic: عيد مبارك) is a traditional Muslim greeting reserved for use on the festivals of Eid ul-Adha and Eid ul-Fitr. The phrase translates into English as "blessed festival", and can be paraphrased as "may you enjoy a blessed festival". Muslims wish each other Eid Mubarak after performing the Eid prayer. This celebration continues till the end of the day. It continues for three days. It is notable that saying these exact words is a cultural tradition influenced by deep roots of religion in it; however, it is not part of any religious obligations. Some people might also add "kul 'am wantum bikhair."
Eid refers to the occasion itself, and Mubarak is'may it become good for you',
Throughout the Muslim world there are numerous other ways of greeting for Eid ul-Adha and Eid ul-Fitr ==
For any others that were as confused as I. Now I gotta figure out why I'm staring at a plate of food. |

I see what you did there. Eid moubarek all, or saha eidkum as we say in algeria, today is eid there but we celebrated it yesterday in london. weird. well, no more fasting or holding out on sins for me, Its evil times again edit: Muslims have their own year which uses the moon cycles around earth instead of the earth around the sun. something like that. Basically the moon goes from croissant full moon than the other side of the croissant within 29-30 days roughly. and it does it 12 times (12 months ) in the Muslim year, which is around 10-15 days shorter than the year we use. So thats why eid comes 10-15 days sooner every year. |

Eid Mubarak, or "Kol 3am Wantum Be-Kheir" as we say in Egypt.
Eid El-Fitr comes at the end of Ramadan, during which there is a daily fast from all food and water. That's why the picture of the plate of food is very fitting :)
As always, be careful with the fireworks and go easy on the sweets! |
