:clown: Sorry for another thread along the same theme.
All images derived from Yahoo News. One aspect i noticed about the pictures in this collection - the diversity in the faces of individuals celebrating this year’s Eid really strikes you. If only we would appreciate how much strength we have in our diversity.
One of the cutest little girls Masha’Allah is in this thread - dressed in her finest pink Eid clothes for Eid prayers. So cute Masha’Allah.

How do 1.6 billion Muslims around the world celebrate their Eid? From Pakistani ladies shopping for chooriyan, to Afghan children taking rides on Ferris wheels, to a Bosnian boy paying his respects at a cemetery with his father, to Indonesian orphan children offering prayers, to Kazakh elderly Muslim males making their duas, to a disabled Afghan man offering his Eid prayer on his wheelchair… millions of diverse Muslims only united by sharing a simple faith.
