In
Morocco, as in many other Arab countries, feasts are an occasion when families
gather and celebrate. It is a must for all individuals to come visit their
relatives no matter what the circumstances are. The big Eid or Eid Kbir as
described by Moroccans, also called Eid Adha, is the most crucial feast in
Morocco. Moroccan families buy sheep to celebrate this occasion. Whatsoever
their income is, the family insists and is very enthusiastic to buy a robust
sheep. On the day of Eid, you see the members of the family sitting altogether
to have breakfast before the time of Eid’s Odhiya arrives. After finishing
their breakfast meal, each has his or her own mission. Once the sheep is
slaughtered, its meat is made into pieces so as to be used during the whole month.
On this same day, people go visit their relatives and say happy Eid to each
other. The second day, the atmosphere of Eid is still in the house; it even
lasts for the whole week. I hope you have the chance to witness such happy
moments for yourself because no matter what the description is, you should see
it from your angle to feel its passion yourself. Believe me, you will not
regret it; so come if you are the type who wants to see other cultures.
Yaaaaa I'd love to come to your country :)
