To fill you in on the nature of the Eid: Eid al-Fitr is the feast to celebrate the end of Ramadan, and Eid al-Adha takes place a lunar month later. Both are Arabic terms; the Turkish term is Bajram, and this is still used in former parts of the Ottoman empire in Europe (Albania, Bosnia and the Sandjak, specifically).

Others have said what the "Eid" festival is all about. The text just says, "Blessed Eid", or "Happy Eid." |
