Cancelling Eid...

:frowning:
I have no new eid outfit this Eid. A few reasons really. I just never had any time to go shopping for an outfit.
(when I go shopping for an outfit it takes all day-or more) it’s been so busy this Ramadan and I never had any time off work so weekends were taken up with cooking and stuff. I’m ashamed tosay this is the first Ramadan that I havent kept up with my prayers.
Also I dont really feel much like celebrating this year. It’s all very grim. What with not being in with the family much anymore and stuff (long story).

Thinking about the earthquake as well. :teary1:

In fact I’m thinking of cancelling eid altogether this year.:teary2:

I’m not looking forward to it at all. :teary3:

Re: Cancelling Eid…

^ same problem over here..:teary1: no dress..:frowning:

Re: Cancelling Eid...

You should not cancel but instead spend more time in prayer and go dressed as simple as possible. That is the genuine spirit of Eid.

Re: Cancelling Eid...

You can't cancel Eid, its a happy occassion -- a blessing from Allah. so as Diva4U said .. try to prayer more and dress simple this eid.. doesn't have to be a new dress.. it has to be the best dress that you have.. nice and clean.. :) and cheer up.. force a smile on ur face.. Allah will love it.. after all HE wants us to be happy.. so appriciate HIS mercy and smile.. :)

Re: Cancelling Eid...

You cannot cancel Eid tabassum. It is like saying you are canceling Ramadan :p You can wear a nice and clean outfit which maybe you haven't worn too many times before. You don't have to have a new outfit for eid.

Re: Cancelling Eid...

just think of the people, whose eid is ruined by floods, earthquakes and hurricanes all over the planet..

that thought in mind, put on a clean dress. ... u will feel MUCH better..

(amount of money you were GONNA spend on dress, give it in mosque as there are needy people around u whose eid may get brighten just because of that lil donation)

real eid comes from happiness of within, not new clothes...

Re: Cancelling Eid…

She hasn’t worn it too many times for one of the two reasons. First she never liked it or second she has become too big for it.:slight_smile:

Re: Cancelling Eid…
