Eid al-Adha in Tunisia: A Cross-Cultural Celebration for Indonesian Muslims

MUHAMMADIYAH.OR.ID, TUNISIA – Indonesians in Tunisia enthusiastically welcomed Eid al-Adha 1446 AH. The Eid celebration was lively and festive, even several days before the holiday.

Chairperson of the Muhammadiyah Special Branch (PCIM) of Tunisia Naufal Shol mentioned that a growing number of Indonesian students in Tunisia brought more energy to the Eid al-Adha celebration at the Indonesian Embassy’s residence.

“Similar to previous years, the Indonesian Embassy’s residence in Tunisia remained the main gathering place for Indonesians to perform the Eid prayer. This year, the prayer was held in two locations, Jami’ Zaitunah and the KBRI residence,” said Naufal.

Eid al-Adha Celebrations in Tunisia

For Naufal and many Indonesians living in Tunisia, celebrating a major Islamic holiday abroad brings a unique and meaningful experience. One of the most noticeable differences is how Eid al-Adha is celebrated more joyfully than Eid al-Fitr in Tunisia.

“There are many cultural differences here. Eid al-Adha in Tunisia is a much bigger event than Eid al-Fitr. For about two weeks before and after the holiday, most shops are closed because people spend time celebrating with their families,” explained Naufal.

One of the local traditions that stood out to Naufal was how people in Tunisia carry out the animal sacrifice. Unlike Indonesia, where the ritual is usually done in public spaces, many Tunisians perform the sacrifice at home.

“What’s unique here is that people usually slaughter their sheep at home, cook the meat, and enjoy it with their families,” said Naufal.

When it comes to food, Tunisians keep it simple. Instead of the elaborate dishes often found in Indonesia like satay, Tunisian families typically grill the meat and season it with salt and pepper.

These cultural differences give Indonesian Muslims in Tunisia a deeper appreciation for the diverse ways Islam is practiced around the world. It also reflects how Islamic values can integrate naturally with local customs, showing the global connection and unity among Muslim communities everywhere.
