Why only one day for EID?
Why only one day for EID?
The Issue
Every other religious celebration, or celebration in general gets multiple days off. Now I'm not saying other celebrations aren't important, they are just why is EID not treated as equal? EID only has one day, just one to celebrate a major holiday. How is that fair? Islam is a huge religion that many people are a part of, and EID is important to all of them. EID isn't just one and done:
- It takes preparation, two to three days max.
- Then the actual celebration, one day.
- Then the aftermath, Calling family members people going home kids resting after their day of celebration, I could go on. another two days
- 5 to 6 days max
Now I'm not asking for special treatment or anything and, I may be biased because I am a Muslim myself, all I'm asking is for the same as everyone else. Islam is just as big as other major religions so we deserve to also have multiple days off for our special celebration two.
Even if you aren't a Muslim it would still mean so much to me if you could sign my petition.
Thank you for taking the time to read this.
