Happy Eid!

<p>happy eid everyone! hope u have fun eating lamb. ill be taking an extra day off of school on tuesday, in addition to the winter break. yessss!</p>

<p>Eid mubarak. We get an extra week off, being a dominantly Muslim school.</p>

<p>Eid Mubarak everyone! Anybody here buy a cow? Do you guys have relatives in America to celebrate Eid with? I dont, and looks like I'll be attending school on Tuesday as if its a normal day :(</p>

<p>Assalamualaikum,</p>

<p>Eid Mubarak to everybody. A blessed day is upon us again. Don't forget tomorrow is Youm-Arafat. </p>

<p>Praise be to Allah I am still on vacation. Feels really nice. I wish it was this way during Ramadan especially the last ten days.</p>

<p>WHAT?!?!?! Is it like some muslim holiday today? I'm really confused :(</p>

<p>There's a Muslim holiday on Tuesday. Its eid. Even if you're not Muslim, I'd like to wish you Eid Mubarak :)</p>

<p>I'm curious, what is it all about? How do you guys celebrate it?</p>

<p>We eat and party together, just like any holiday. Its the celebration of Ibrahim's sacrifice of his son for God.</p>

<p>Oh, enjoy your holiday and thanks for explaining. I was confused.</p>

<p>I'm confused...I thought Eid was the big holiday at the end of Ramadan?</p>

<p>There's two eids - this one is Eid al adha, the one after ramadan is eid al fitr.</p>

<p>Oh, ok. Happy Eid then :)</p>

<p>Thanks :)
Like Killer put it, "Even if you're not Muslim, I'd like to wish you Eid Mubarak."</p>

<p>Eid Mubarak fellow brothers and sisters! I'm just concerned because that day I have 2 projects and a presentation due... and then I have to work and stuff so I'm going to miss a bunch of the party, heh. But oh well, this is more important!</p>

<p>Hah, I just scrolled down the CC Cafe page, and there's kinda an Islamic theme going on with the threads :) -is happy-</p>

<p>i can never get the feel of eid if im not in a muslim country. i mean, we have finals next week and i have to start studying for that. i wished it could be a national day off, like in egypt. They have days off for both christian and muslim holidays, even though christians are a minority, only about 8%.</p>

<p>Yeah, that's what we get for living in a predominantly Christian country. We don't get jewish holidays off school either, so I always end up missing tons of days in September/October. If they celebrated everybody's individual holidays I have a feeling we'd be in school forever!</p>

<p>We'd be in school forever? Not really...when I was livin' in M'sia we celebrated Eid (both of them), Chinese New Year and Deepavali. And the national holidays. But not the Jewish holidays. That was a LOT of vacations. I don't know if we celebrated Easter. don't remember. maybe my schoool did.</p>

<p>Ah, so you're Muslim then KillerAngel?</p>

<p>Eid Mubarak....Who's missing school?</p>

<p>Me too....:cool:</p>
