This means Eid Mubarak: Blessed/Happy Festival
The expression “Eid Mubarak” (Arabic: عيد مبارك) is an Arabic greeting for Islamic celebrations. “Eid” means “feast” or “celebration” in German, while “Mubarak” can be translated as “blessing”. Accordingly, “Eid Mubarak” means a “Happy Festival” or “Blessed Festival”.
Origin of Eid Mubarak
In Islam, the biggest festivals, Eid al-Fitr, the breaking of the fast, and Eid al-Adha, the festival of sacrifice, are celebrated with great effort every year by Muslims all over the world. Especially at these times, it is customary among Arab Muslims to exchange “Eid Mubarak” greetings, i.e. to wish everyone a “Happy Holiday”.
