Eid Al Adha in UAE: Final preparations underway across neighbourhoods
As the sun sets on the eve of Eid Al Adha, a quiet buzz of anticipation sweeps through neighbourhoods across the UAE. From bustling kitchens to decorated living rooms, families are putting the final touches on preparations for a holiday rooted in faith, sacrifice, and togetherness. Vans filled with livestock made their final deliveries earlier on Thursday, June 5. Farmers and butchers say everything is in place for the Qurbani — the ritual sacrifice that honours Prophet Ibrahim's unwavering faith. 'It's a solemn moment, but also one of great meaning for us,' said Faisal Mohammed, a resident of Al Ain. As Eid draws near, the local supermarket comes alive with a festive buzz. The aisles are stacked high with dates, nuts, sweets, and dried fruits — each bundle wrapped in bright, cheerful packaging that seems to echo the excitement in the air. Near the entrance, trays of baklava, maamoul, and kunafa tempt shoppers with their golden layers and rich aromas, impossible to pass without a second glance. Families move through the store in joyful chaos — with kids darting ahead, elders offering suggestions, and shopping carts filled to the brim. The meat section is packed, as everyone queues patiently to get the freshest cuts for their holiday feasts. Over by the spice racks, the air is thick with the warm, familiar scent of cardamom, cinnamon, saffron, and cloves. Fresh herbs and produce — mint, coriander, lemons, green chilies — are disappearing fast. Banners in gold proudly wish everyone 'Eid Mubarak'. Every corner seems to hold something special — gift hampers, perfume deals, cooking sets, and shelves of prayer mats and attar. Kids linger wide-eyed near the toy section, clutching candy, while their parents carefully pick out final touches for their homes and dining tables. Palestinians in Dubai mark Eid with gratitude and reflection Meanwhile, an aid convoy from the UAE has reached Gaza, carrying more than 1,000 tonnes of essential food supplies to support families in need. The shipment is part of the UAE's ongoing Gallant Knight 3 operation, launched by President Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan to provide relief to civilians in Gaza. According to state news agency WAM, the convoy delivered around 1,039 tonnes of food and flour, aiming to help approximately 1.3 million people facing severe hardship. For Jordanian-Palestinian resident Sajida Al Bashir, this Eid is a mix of gratitude and concern. She said, 'My twin sister lives in Palestine, and it's hard knowing the mood there is so heavy,' she said. 'Here in the UAE, there's a festive spirit in the air, but it's very different over there. Still, no matter what's happening, we believe in celebrating Eid in a simple, meaningful way — to thank Allah for all His blessings and to keep others in our prayers — especially the unprivileged.' Bashir added, 'We remember those who can't celebrate Eid because of their difficult circumstances. One thing I always look forward to is giving Eidiya to the children in our neighbourhood — and to my son's friends who'll be stopping by. It's a small gesture, but 'giving' brings great joy.' Little hands ready to receive Eidiya Across the country, little hands are ready to receive Eidiya — the cherished tradition where elders gift money to the young. 'My little niece and nephew have been practicing how to say 'Eid Mubarak' all week just to charm the family into giving them extra,' laughs Saman Haziq, who will be visiting her brother's house tomorrow. But it's not just the children counting down. In homes and prayer rooms, the older generation readies for Eid prayers at dawn. Many will step out early, dressed in fresh clothes, eager to greet neighbours and friends, and share warm embraces after the sermon. 'Eid is typically a family-centric celebration. We usually complete our grocery shopping several days ahead, taking advantage of various in-store and online offers. I often prepare kebabs, curries, and sheer khurma for the occasion. The day starts with the traditional Eid prayer, followed by calls to family and friends to exchange greetings. Lunch is usually a family-only affair, and in the evening, we might head out to the mall,' said Abu Dhabi resident Zoya Shaikh. Families with loved ones on pilgrimage are feeling particularly blessed. 'My parents called from Makkah — their Hajj was accepted, and they're praying for all of us,' said Latifa Khoury, holding back tears. 'That made this Eid extra special.' Even as the heat lingers — the forecast nearing 45°C — the warmth of the occasion is what people are feeling the most. 'Eid is more than just a day,' said Aliyah Alam in Dubai. 'It's a feeling — of gratitude, of love, and of coming together.'

SRTA launches ‘On-Demand Buses' service in Sharjah
Flexible, direct mobility solution This innovative service offers passengers a flexible and direct mode of transport from their homes to their daily destinations, particularly in areas not fully served by the current public bus network. It promotes the concept of an integrated transport system across the emirate. Engineer Yousef Khamis Al Othmani, chairman of the Sharjah Roads and Transport Authority (SRTA), emphasised the need for a flexible, sustainable public transport system in light of Sharjah's rapid urban and population expansion. The On-Demand Buses service reflects SRTA's vision for reducing private vehicle use, thereby lowering congestion and carbon emissions. Enhancing quality of life through smart transport Al Othmani added that public transport is central to improving quality of life and mobility within the emirate. SRTA continues to invest in modern transport technologies and expand smart services for all while committing to a safe and sustainable transport environment that aligns with Sharjah's strategic vision for a more balanced and prosperous urban future. Affordable, smart and user-friendly The first phase includes two buses operating daily from 6:00 am to 10:00 pm, with a nominal fare of AED 8 per trip. Children under five travel for free. Users can request and track buses in real time via a smart app, which also allows for cashless payments and instant quality feedback. The system enables users to set their pick-up and drop-off points without being restricted to fixed bus stops or schedules, offering flexibility tailored to residents' and visitors' needs. The service facilitates convenient travel from residential areas to daily destinations, including commercial centres, restaurants, service facilities, and workplaces—reducing dependence on private cars and improving overall accessibility. Smart features Abdulaziz Al Jarwan, Director of Transport Affairs at SRTA, stated that buses are equipped with internal surveillance cameras to ensure a safe travel environment. Linked to AI systems, the buses collect real-time data on passenger numbers, demographics, and usage patterns, enabling data-driven decision-making for improved operations and future planning. The buses are also equipped to accommodate people of determination, with features that ensure easy boarding and movement. The launch coincided with the Eid Al-Adha holidays—an ideal time due to increased travel activity. The initiative is part of SRTA's long-term strategy for a scalable, smart, and sustainable transport network. The first phase will be evaluated to guide potential expansion to other areas in the future, in line with SRTA's mission to improve quality of life and ensure accessible mobility for all.
