The Jazan greetings icon “Kabir Kabir Umaid” can be found on their tongues on Eid. The elderly say it to their children and their loved ones on every Eid. It is a phrase beloved to the elderly in which they congratulate their children in a sincere invitation from them to their children, who have grown up hearing it.
“Kabir has grown up, a pilgrim, a pilgrim, a city, and a halal girl.” Many of Jizan’s sons and visitors have grown up with her, and they do not understand what it means except that it is associated with the feast that restores its glow in their souls, so that it returns with them every year.
And Abdullah Al-Hamdi says that these words are not absent from the mouths of the elderly, who carry the wishes that the children will live long along the holidays over the years, which are accompanied by their wishes for the marriage of their children and grandchildren.
And Omar Al-Hakami says: We grew up hearing these phrases, “Kabir, grow old, and Eid,” which are aspirations for longevity, while grandmothers say to their children, “Hajj and Cities,” which are the aspirations that the one who receives the congratulations will perform Hajj, and be able to visit Medina, which are the aspirations of many Muslims.
Al-Hakami refers to one of those expressions on the feast, which is “Bint Halal”, which is a supplication for him to marry and grant success to the person, and Ibn Halal corresponds to it, which is said to girls and a supplication for them to marry. The Jizan feast is not devoid of the scent of henna, which emanates from homes on the night of the 29th of Ramadan, and it is an indication of receiving congratulations and an announcement from mothers to enter the feast. Therefore, they begin to engrave henna on their hands, and the fragrant fragrance of perfume spreads in every house, as it is the title of joy in Jizan, and the occasions of its residents are not without it.
