( March 2017 ) Eid Mubarak or Blessed Eid ( Arabic : عيد مبارك ‎ ‎ ) is a traditional Muslim greeting reserved for use on the festivals of Eid al - Adha and Eid al - Fitr. Eid means `` celebration '' and refers to the occasion itself, and Mubarak means `` blessed '' ; for example, performing the Eid prayer. So Eid, meaning `` celebration, '' and Mubarak, meaning `` Blessed '' literally translates to wishing your friends a blessed holiday. In the social sense, people usually celebrate Eid al - Fitr after Ramadan and Eid - al - Adha in the month of Dhul Haj ( 12th and Final Islamic month ), greetings like `` Eid Mubarak ''. Some state this exchange of greetings is a cultural tradition and not part of any religious obligation. However, it is only used during the celebration of the two Muslim holidays.
