Eid Mubarak

Festival greeting phrase

Eid Mubarak is an Arabic greeting meaning "blessed festival," used by Muslims to wish one another well during the two major Islamic holidays: Eid al-Fitr (marking the end of Ramadan) and Eid al-Adha (the feast of sacrifice).

The phrase functions like "Merry Christmas" or "Happy Hanukkah"—a warm acknowledgment of a religious celebration: Eid Mubarak to you and your family.
