Eid ul Fitar is one of the most awaited events in the Muslim world. The enthusiasm of every Muslim, young and old alike, skyrockets with a moon-sight. Marked with the aroma of mouth-watering delights, colors of Eid dresses, and air of brotherhood, Eid ul Fitr brings everyone together like none other. It’s that time of the year again! Eid-ul-Fitr is just around the corner (merely two weeks away).
This year, it will be the second Eid-ul-Fitr since the pandemic. The rampant spread of coronavirus has posed a question mark to the communal celebrations of Eid. But don’t worry! Following SOPs and staying safe at home doesn’t mean you have to compromise on Eid festivities! There is a lot that you can do while staying within the four walls of your home. But make sure that the passion and enthusiasm know no limit and are bound by no confines.
Following are three things to do during the Eid holidays.
1. Share Your Happiness
In this testing time of the pandemic, make sure that no one is left behind. Since the current situation of the pandemic has limited all the activities, meeting and greeting will also not be how they used to be. Thanks to fast-paced digitalization, all our dear ones are nearer to us than we can imagine. You can prepare dishes or buy gifts online and send them over to your friends and family’s home by availing of different delivery services.
The best part about these delivery services is that they also offer express delivery and follow all the SOPs of safety from covid-19. Apart from remembering and staying in touch with your friends and family, do not forget those who need our generosity the most. Donate some money online. Various non-profit organizations are doing a fantastic job. All you have to do is search them up and donate!
2. Netflix Party
Don’t let the pandemic be a killjoy! Just because you can’t visit your friends and family or sit in large gatherings doesn’t mean you can’t do any activity collectively. Netflix party feature allows you to watch seasons and movies with your loved ones remotely. All you have to do is to install the Teleparty app. You can have a Netflix party both on your laptop or TV.
3. Design Your Own Eid Card
Dreading a boring Eid due to lack of better activities? Designing your own Eid card is not only a great pastime but also a meaningful gesture. Eid cards might seem old-fashioned, but there is a lot that you can do to innovate and make it enjoyable. All you need is your mobile phone, tablet or laptop.
