Eid Alfter











Every year we have a special holiday after Ramadan. Ramadan is a holy month in our religion. This holiday called ''Eid Alfter''. All Muslim families start arrange for this holiday since the last ten days from Ramadan. They buy new clothing and a special candy. On the day of the celebration, the Muslim families wake up very early and praying the first prayer. They wear a new clothing. They attend special congregational prayers held only for this occasion in mosques, in large open areas, stadiums or arenas. After they pray Eid Alfter prayer, they visit the homes of relatives and friends. They bless to each other, saying all year, you are fine. They eat a big breakfast together and they spend all day together. In my country, there are two holidays but Eid Alfter is my favourite holiday.

  1. Actually we studied this holiday in Speaking and Listening class today - it's in Unit 5. The sweets look really good!

    Corrections: "All Muslim families start preparing for this holiday during the last ten days of Ramadan." "They wear new clothing."
