Get Ready America, For Your Muslim Postage Stamps
As the new year begins, the U.S. Postal Service has introduced its annual batch of 2016 stamps.
Surprisingly, among the stamps is a purple-and-gold stamp celebrating the two most significant festivals in Islam: Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha.
The stamp’s gold calligraphy reads Eidukum mumbarak, which translates as: “May your Eid be bountiful.”
The stamp features no imagery, only the Arabic lettering, plus the words "Eid Greetings" and "USA" in English.
