Eid al-Milad al-Nabawi

The Mawlid al-Nabi is celebrated with sweets, storytelling, and community gatherings. Syrian households prepare special desserts : maqrud (date cookies), ghrybeh (shortbread), and znud al-sit ("lady's sleeves" pastries). In the streets of Damascus and Aleppo, children carry small flags and mosques are illuminated. The tradition is to read the story of the Prophet's birth, to give to the poor, and to visit the shrines of saints. . 2026: Sep 5. 2027: Aug 25.
