Salams and Greetings All,

It’s Monday evening and here at emel HQ we’re all looking forward to what’s set to be a great week inshAllah. It’s Eid week, and Muslims around the world will be getting together to celebrate the occasion of Eid ul Adha.

To mark this, we thought we’d share some of our Eid plans and hopefully inspire you to share with us too.

Robi, Web Editor - After the initial mosque run in the morning (not a local marathon.. I mean the Eid Prayers),  I’ll be spending some time with the family helping distribute meat to our extended family members.

Fatema, Lifestyle Editor – I’ll be getting together with family over a good meal. Eid-Al-Adha is usually a time when people in the family will be reflecting on their past Hajj experiences, which is always pretty interesting.

Iram, Administrator – We’re holding a family talent contest at home. All the cousins will be turning up and as for the cooking; the parents will be putting up their feet whilst the kids rustle up some Eid food.

Ali, Editorial Intern – Eid for me is just a family occasion – a time to catch up with cousins over plates of delicious food!

Steven, Creative Director – It means a day off for me! I can reflect on the goodness of life.
