"As a child, I remember the excitement of wearing new clothes, collecting Eidi, and visiting friends and relatives throughout the day.

Even today, I make it a point to catch up with my close friends during Eid, as it's the perfect time to reconnect," he remembered.

While the sentiment is nice, I wish the article had also highlighted some of the charitable aspects of Eid, like Zakat and feeding the needy. That's a core part of the festival too.
