Steemit Engagement Challenge - Muslim's Festival

Hello Everyone.
This is @irsaumar with the entry for week 2 of the engagement challenge. As we all Muslims have recently said goodbye to the Holy Month of Ramadan and Eid ul fitar was few days back so i think its best time to call it my favourite cultural festival.

Culture of any country shows specific values, virtues likes and dislikes of that country. Each nation has its own culture. In the same way being an independent nation, Pakistan, it comprises of very diversified cultures. Pakistani society is a mixture of distinctive areas and tribes, for example, Sindh, Punjab, Khyber Pakhtun Khan and Balochistan.All these areas have their own culture but The culture which is same in all these is to celebrate both Eids.Eid ul Fitr and Eid ul Azha
As a girl my favorite cultural festival is Eid ul Fitr.This Eid is also called Meethi Eid.

Eid-Ul-Fitr😍

Eid-ul-Fitr is a religious festival for Muslims and it is celebrated at the end of Ramadan after fasting and on 1st of Shawwal of every Islamic month. This is a gift from Allah Ta'ala to Muslims for fasting in Ramadan.We Muslim try our best to do all the acts of kindnedd in full 30 days of Ramzan Sharif .

Zakat

Zakat is obligatory on Muslims .In the month of Ramadan, Muslims pay money to poor Muslims as Zakat.Zakat is a payment made annually under Islamic law on certain kinds of property and used for charitable and religious purposes, one of the Five Pillars of Islam.Due to the payment of Zakat to the poor, their long pending works are completed. Because they are given more money so that they too can spend Eid well .

Chand raat

Ramadan Sharif ends on the moon night,Sometimes twenty nine and sometimes thirty . And it is estimated by seeing the moon .As soon as the moon is seen, a wave of happiness runs among the children, both women and men. Women quickly start applying Mehndi and start making something sweet for Eid. When men get busy in getting a haircut, due to which there is a lot of fury in the cutting salon of men.

0n the Eid day

On eif Morning Eid prayers are offered early .Before offering Namaz one has to pay Fitrana.This is Eidi for the poor.Men offer namaz in mosques while women offer namaz in a house in the locality. After offering namaz w eid everyone meets each other on Eid and petty grievances are forgotten. And that's the beauty of Eid .

Sweets are eaten after that, people usually do not have proper breakfast on the day of Eid. Most people eat sweets .And then the process of going to relatives' house starts .Everyone tries their best to look beautiful on Eid .

Traditional dress

Preparation of girls on Eid is special .Girls who do not wear bangles and mehndi throughout the year, they also wear mehndi and bangles on Eid. Girls' colorful bangles and hands with mehndi make the beauty of Eid even more.Mehndi is applied to small girls and they are mostly made to wear our traditional dress Salwar Kameez, due to which they look very beautiful and cute.

Sweets and Barfi

On the day of Eid, when someone goes to each other's house, they take some sweet sweets or barfi with them. it's an expression of love .This is how we Muslims share our happiness among each other .
