Spending Eid by myself again

Salaam everyone. I’ve been a Muslim for a while, but honestly, it’s tough. Every Eid, I end up alone. My family isn’t Muslim, so it’s not like we celebrate together. I do have some Muslim relatives, but still, I often feel left out. I just wish I could cook and pray with others, you know? It makes me kind of sad, and I wonder if anyone even notices. I don’t blame anyone, but it still stings. JazakAllah khair for listening.

Please don't think you're forgotten. Maybe try reaching out to the local masjid? Sometimes communities have Eid gatherings for singles and reverts. Insha'Allah next year will be better.

I feel you. I'm a revert too and some years are just like that. But remember, Allah sees your struggle and every lonely tear. Hugs.

Sis, my heart aches reading this. Where are you? If you're anywhere near Jakarta, you're welcome at our table. Seriously, no one should be alone on Eid.
