It serves as an occasion not only for worship but also for reinforcing family bonds, social cohesion, and community cooperation. Doha has been described as a distinctive model of coexistence, where multiple cultures maintain their unique identities while participating in shared traditions.

For many Arab communities, including Egyptians, the festival involves traditional preparations starting from the first 10 days of Dhul Hijjah, including prayers and the chanting of Takbeer to create a solemn and festive atmosphere. Traditional dishes such as Egyptian Fattah and liver meals are commonly prepared, alongside charity initiatives and sacrifice donation projects that emphasize the spirit of giving. Family visits, children's gifts, and social gatherings are integral elements of the celebrations.
