While we’re sad that Ramadan ended so quickly, Eid is here! And what better way to celebrate than by reminiscing over the fun things we typically do with our families over the three-day holiday now considered traditions?
Every household likely engages in at least one — if not all — of these customs, so let’s dive down memory lane!
Eating and Drinking After Fajr

This is nearly everyone’s guilty pleasure; right after the last Fajr prayer of Ramadan, you grab anything to eat or drink — even if you’re full! Some young adults turn this tradition into a competition of who will be the first to eat or drink after the Azan, and we think it’s hilarious.
Watching Masrahiyat

Watching Masrahiyat is the only way to celebrate the first day of Eid right, with the most popular Egyptian plays to watch on the first day of Eid being Madraset El Moshaghbeen and El Eyal Kebert. This is one Eid ritual we hope never stops!
Taking Edeyas

Receiving Edeyas (money prizes) from our family members is essential for pushing our Eid vacations to the next level. After all, we can buy a nice meal out or a new Eid outfit with the extra money. If you’re accustomed to taking Edeyas, your Eid won’t be complete without it!
Baking Kahk and Biscuits With Family

Nothing is more warm and fun than baking traditional Eid sweets with our parents or grandparents. Making kakh and biscuits from scratch and eating them over three days is a delicious reward marking the end of the month-long fasting period.
