    Assalamu Alikum,

    So I'll greet you with “Selamat Hari Raya” instead of “Eid Mubarak” since it is more populare in this region :) . It goes for you, your family and the ones you love :)

    Wa'alaykumsalam Hicham, thanks! I am in California, so either greeting works for me. Love is a universal language so whatever greeting that conveys love and peace is fine by me! 'Eid Kareem to your loved ones and your good self.
