Re: need help
1) eid for me is special symbol of celebrating our religious festival with unity amongst muslims! It means alot more celebrating eid when your in a foreign country mainly because you hold on to what is dearest to you when your amongst so many diverse people. It provides an identity, shows my roots makes me who I am.. a muslim.
2) On eid wake up early in the morning to the smell of mum's cooking! get dressed before the men of the house come home after reading eid namaaz. If they come home before im dressed then they are not allowed to see me until im fully ready.. its just a little thing my mum used to do when i was younger and its turned into a mini tradition lol! then i go down wish eid mubarak to my family and get all the eidi i can outta them. Then i munch on food and later go around to my nani's where all my mamu's and khala's are there with family (And theres sooooo many of us) The oldies are usually having a laugh in one room and all us cousins are in another. Its sooooo much fun!! Then in the evening we make our way to my thaya's house and spend it there again with cousins late into the night.
3) money money moneyyyyyyyyyy
4) always traditional pakistani! whether that be shalwar kameez, churidaar or something else.
