Eid al-Fitr — Levantine Arab Traditions
Wed, March 10, 2027
In Lebanese, Syrian, Palestinian, and Jordanian homes, you know Eid is close when the kitchen fills with trays of maamoul, semolina cookies pressed in carved wooden molds and dusted with powdered sugar, made days ahead to serve with Arabic coffee to every guest who walks in. Eid al-Fitr closes Ramadan with dawn prayers, knafeh for breakfast, eidiyah for the kids, and three days of open doors.

Eid al-Fitr — Gulf Arab Traditions
Wed, March 10, 2027
In the Gulf, Eid means the smell of harees and machboos drifting from the kitchen, luqaimat fried golden and drizzled with date syrup, and gahwa poured for every guest who steps into the majlis. After the dawn prayer, men in crisp white kanduras and children clutching their Eidiyah move from house to house in a long day of hospitality.
