Sample 1]: Essay on Id or Eid (293 words)
In the 7th
century, a new faith appeared in the world. This faith was revealed to the
prophet Muhammad, and its name is Islam, which is an Arabic word meaning
"submission to the will of God." The followers of Islam are called
Muslims. They believe in one God, whom they call Allah, who is eternal and
created the universe. They also believe that Allah sent the prophet Mohammad to
the earth to tell people how to live their lives.
Muslims
celebrate several important events in Muhammad's life—his birthday and the
Quran's receiving day from Angel Gabriel—but their most important festival is
Id.
The ninth
month of the Islamic year is Ramadan, or Ramazan, the month of fasting. Ramadan
is the holiest and happiest period in a Muslim's life. The festival lasts for a
month. They fast for the whole month without consuming anything during the day.
They pray to God five times a day with the help of Nawaz. They do special
prayers on Fridays. There is a public holiday on Id Day in Nepal.
The festival
of Ramadan ends with Id, and the Id festival starts with a light meal and the
meeting at the mosque for prayers, where they give thanks for a successful
fast. After prayers, there are parties at which people eat special and
delicious foods like sweets, cakes, etc. They also invite their neighbors. They
exchanged their cards and presents. They greet you by saying "Id
Mubarak," which means "Happy Id." Before the festival, people
give money to the poor so that everyone can join in the celebration.
In the end,
this festival makes a person happy because of the fasting and praying. It also
develops humanitarian feelings of brotherhood by giving something to the poor.
