Happy " Eid Al fitr" (Muslims celebrate breakfast after fasting the holy month of Ramadan) and "Sham al Naseem festival" ( an ancient Egyptian celebration of harvest ).
Kahk (coptic word) is round to represent the round desk of the sun ☀ the symbol of the ancient Egyptian god "Raa"
The eid cookies (kahk) is the oldest cookie in the world (British museum)
(we still make them today! The filled ones (kahk) in Eid. And the hollow ones (bracelet cookies) in funerals
Our ancestors bringing kahk as symbolic sacrifice to Raa
Speaking of Easter.. Did you know that Sham al Naseem is the og Easter?
But in Egypt we postpone it so that Christians can eat fish (after fasting themselves) 🥰
I can talk about our traditions and civilization all day long but nothing is compared to experiencing Egypt yourself. So don't be a stranger to the mother of the world 🥰❤️🇪🇬
