especially non muslim countries how do you spend eid? or any pakistani celebration.
what what did your parents instilled in you, like what is done or what kind of activities ?? like what kind of things are norm or cultural or religious to you or is ?
From as a child, our eids have been spent visiting my 2 great aunts that live in te same city as us, we'll go to one in the afternoon,and the other in the evening,and the next day they'll come to ours. and now,after many years, this has lost any appeal it ever had lol, and but still its what we do for eid. and thats it. recently i feel like our eids couldve been a bit more interesting, like we couldve gone to visit relatives in another city, but visiting the great aunts is our little family tradition i guess.
Same as what i would spend in Pakistan. I don’t see the difference between celebrating Eid in Pak or anywhere outside. Only difference is qurbani.
I don’t go with families, don’t go to any of realtives house. I find it boring. I just call up my mates and we make a plan and go out somewhere, chill out. Used to do the same in Pakistan.
A lot of guests come over to our home on Eid but since i don’t like spending my day with relatives, i just go out. It’s much better and more fun

Most of my Eids have been spent at work. This time it fell on Black Friday, so everyone was off anyway, so I had off.
But usually, maybe Eid namaaz if I have a day off.
The rest of your questions are broad. I was born in America. I'm fairly American in my pastimes.
We don't really do anything "cultural" anymore. Even down to the food I eat is mostly American. I used to go to Islamic school when I was a kid. I used to go to desi melas for Eid. I guess they still do them now - I never hear about them.
Chand raat parties. Mehndi. Presents. Eid salah. New clothes. Dressing up. Visit family. Good food
In the second, third days, get togethers with friends
We usually wake up collect our eidi, get dressed up go to masjid for eid namaz where we meet our friends, come home take pictures, go visit friends and families the rest of the day, or they come to us.....and o we do mehndi the night before
Since we are living here now so we usually have chand raat, eid prayer hub take a day off always so its party either at my house or someone else's house. Accept qurbani all the regular stuff we do for our children. Eidi, mehndi, chooriyaan, dresses ,pictures.
I was born and raised in England. There is a huge Pakistani community here so i did not find that my Eid was any different from that celebrated in Pakistan. We as a family would read Eid Salah, cook great food, visit family and entertain guests at home. My parents taught us Islamic values and mannerisms. I studied Quran and Islamic beliefs and practices at the local madrassah. Basically, despite living in a western society my family and my upbringing has been quite traditionally Pakistani.
