As predicted in my blog at the start of the month, the festival of Eid will take place this year under lockdown. Whilst it won’t be the usual celebration that you’ll all be used to – dressing up, visiting family, seeing friends and eating out – we hope it is still a special day for you all.
I’m going to make it as normal as possible in that I will still see my family, albeit via Zoom. We’ll catch up and open the Secret Eid presents that we ordered for each other. This will take place after a full English breakfast and before a takeaway. We can’t go out for a feast, but we can definitely bring the feast home!
To everyone else celebrating this year (however that may be), we wish you an Eid Mubarak!
Stay safe.
Mr Jaffer
