Al-Mawled Al-Nabawi
Today Egyptian celebrat the birthday of prophet Muhammad Al-Mawled Al-Nabawi. The celebration since Fatimid era includes buying 'Halwat Al-Mawled' (nutty sweets made of nuts and sugarsyrup) & 'Arouset Al Mawlid' (Sugar doll that covered with coloured paper) The doll was a symbol of Mawlid and newly married couple. There are 2 theories related the origin of the doll. 1st theory: During Fatimid era the ruler Al Hakim Ba'amrullah dressed up as a soldier while riding a horse to visit a town with his wife she wore a white dress with a Jasmine flower crown on her head. When candy makers saw her they decided to decipt her and her husband on horse, they sculptured a sugar doll with 3 circular fans attached behind and a sultan on a horse shape doll for the ruler. 2nd theory: Soldiers returning from war were promized to marry beautiful women as a reward that's why candy dolls were made to honor them. 요즘에 이집트 사람들이 예언자 무함마드의 탄생일 (알 말레드 알 나바위) 지냅니다. 파티마 시대에 축하 행
