|
رحنا لاول جزار، لقينا عنده كذا خروف كويس، بس كانت المشكله ان الخرفان كانت منفوخه و حجمها كبير.,"We went to the first butcher and found he had some good sheep, but the problem was that the sheep were swollen and their bodies were big."
|
و ده بسبب ان الجزار بيحط ملح كتير فى العلف بتاع الخروف، فبيخلى الخروف يشرب ميه كتير فلما تيجى توزنه، بيبقى وزنه كبير بسبب الميه اللى فى جسمه.,"And this was because the butcher put a lot of salt in the sheep’s feed, and it makes the sheep drink a lot of water, so when you weigh them, they weigh a lot due to the water in their bodies."

|
من يومين كان اول يوم فى عيد الاضحى.,Two days ago was the first day of the Sacrifice Feast (Al-Adha).
|
عيد الاضحى هو تانى و اكبر اعيادنا كمسلمين، بس الحقيقه فى مصر بنحتفل بيه سوا: المسيحيين قبل المسلمين.,"The Sacrifice Feast is the second and the biggest holiday for us as Muslims, but actually in Egypt we celebrate it together: Christians before Muslims!"
|
العيد اربع ايام و اهم حاجه بتميزه هو “دبح الاضحيه”، توزيع لحمتها على القرايب و الفقراء، بس اللى بيقوم بالمهمه دى عندنا هما الرجاله.,"Al-Adha is four days and the most important thing that distinguishes it is “the slaughter of sacrificial animal” and giving its meat to family and the poor, but the ones who carry out this task here is the men."
|
اما انا، فالعيد بالنسبه ليا بيتلخص فى تلات حاجات اساسيه: الحاجه الاولى هى صلاة العيد.,"For me, the holiday boils down to main three things: The first is the “Eid Prayer”."
|
و دى بتبقى فى اول يوم بعد وقت شروق الشمس بكام دقيقه كده.,It’s performed on the first day within a few minutes after sunrise.
|
الناس بتنزل من بيوتها و تتجمع فى المساجد و الساحات الواسعه عشان يأدوا الصلاه.,"People come out of their homes, gather in the mosques and spacious squares to perform the prayer."
|
بالنسبه ليا ده اعظم جزء فى العيد و اكترهم بهجه و فرحه لأنه بيتيح ليا انى اتفرج على شروق الشمس على النيل و انا فى طريقى للصلاه.,"For me that’s the best part of the holiday, and the best part is the joy and pleasure because it allows me to watch the sunrise over the Nile river while I’m on my way to pray."
|
ده مش متاح ليا فى الايام العاديه لأن مينفعش انزل لوحدى فى وقت بدرى زى ده لأنى بنت، شىء مؤسف فعلاً!,This isn’t allowed for me on normal days because there’s no way I can go out alone at such an early hour because I’m a girl!
|
الحاجه التانيه هى الفته.,It’s a real pity!
|
الفته و ما ادراكم ما الفته!,The second thing is “al-fatta”.
|
ده افشخ اختراع امى بتعمله.,And what do you know about al-fatta!
|
و تعتبر الاكله الاساسيه لعيد الاضحى.,"It’s the best creation my mom cooks, and it’s considered the main meal for the Adha feast."
|
عباره عن رز و عيش و لحمه بيتعملوا بطريقه معينه.,"It consists of rice, bread, and meat prepared in a certain way."
|
بس صدقونى: اللى مداقش الفته قبل كده فتوه كتير اوى.,But believe me: he who hasn’t tasted al-fatta before is missing out.
|
تالت حاجه مهمه ليا هى “العيديه” و ده طقس لازم من طقوس الاعياد من ساعة ما كنت صغيره.,The third thing that is important to me is “al-eidiah” and that’s been an essential holiday ritual ever since I was little.
|
العيديه ده مبلغ من الفلوس اياً كانت قيمته بناخده من قرايبنا (خال، عم، جد، اياً كان) لما نتجمع فى العيد، اياً كان، انا عمرى ما بكبر على العيديه.,"“Eidiah” is an amount of money–whatever its value–we get from our relatives (uncle, grandfather, whoever) when we get together on the holiday."
|
باقى ايام العيد بقضيها فى البيت، اكل و نوم، نوم و اكل.,"However, I never get too old for “al-eidiah!"
|
مش بقدر اخرج او اتفسح بسبب الزحمه الشديده و اللى بيترتب عليها من تحرش و قرف!,"” I spend the rest of the days at home, eating and sleeping, sleeping and eating."
|
العيد بالنسبه ليا بيكون خلص كده.,I can’t go out or hang out because of the excessive crowds and the harassment and filth that comes with it.
|
بس مبيكونش خلص بالنسبه للاطفال و الولاد.,"For me, the holiday is thus over."
|
الاطفال بيكونوا مقضيينها لعب فى الشارع طول اليوم بـ”الديناميت و البومب” و دى عباره عن مفرقعات.,"But it’s not over for kids, and boys."
|
و يرموها على اللى رايح و اللى جاى.,Kids spend all day playing in the street with “dynamite and bomb”–which are firecrackers.
|

|
و على النقيض الولاد بيحسوا بالعيد بطريقه مختلفه تماماً، مليانه مغامرات و اكشن.,"I won’t deny that this stuff used to be fun for me, and I’d play with them too, But now it has just become annoying for me, or you can say that the older I get the less I care about the holiday."
|
بس الافضل ان واحد منهم هو اللى يحكيلكم تجاربهم.,"On the other hand, boys feel differently about the holiday all together, full of adventure and action."
|
يلا كل سنه و انتو طيبين.,"But it’d better for one of them to tell you about their experiences Happy Blessed Adha Feast, all of you!"
