2016 USPS Eid Holiday Greetings Forever Stamps 100Pcs/Pack

This stamp commemorates the two most important festivals or eids in the Islamic calendar: Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha. The gold-colored calligraphy on the stamp was created by world-renowned calligrapher Mohamed Zakariya. It reads Eidukum Mubarak, “May your Eid be bountiful (or blessed).” The calligraphy on previous Eid stamps issued by the USPS read Eid Mubarak, “May the religious holiday be blessed.”

To the right of the script, a stylized olive branch rendered in gold carries connotations of abundance, family, hospitality, and peace.
