Spoofing in the Sabbath of light
Among the customs associated with the celebration of the Sabbath of Light is the impersonation of the kohl in the eye, and the habit of putting the kohl on the Sabbath of light is due, according to the Christian belief, to what was used by the saints in Jerusalem from the oppression of the eyes to protect them from the light of the tomb of Christ, except that the habit of putting the kohl in the eye It is an ancient custom from early civilizations.
According to a study titled "Kohl in Iraqi popular poetry" by the researcher Saadi Jabbar in charge, the Civil Dialogue magazine published in 2019, that the use of Kohl historically dates back to the year 3500 years before Christmas and our ancestors burned the seeds of dates after eating and turning them into a kohl that adorns women, and even men as well.

According to previous statements by al-Tayyib Gharib, the chief inspector of Karnak temples, that the beginning of the celebrations of the ancient Egyptians in the Pharaonic times of the Spring Festival (Shumu) was in the year (2700 BC), specifically to the end of the third Pharaonic family, as this holiday was known in the city of Heliopolis, It is a feast that symbolizes the ancient Egyptians to bring life to life, and the ancient Egyptians believed that that day was the first time, or the beginning of the creation of the world as they imagined, and the name was modified for this holiday over the various ages and the word "breeze" was added to it because this chapter is related to the mild atmosphere. , And the pleasant breeze, and the accompanying celebration of that feast Go out to parks and gardens and enjoy the beauty of nature.
Offerings
Visit the graves
The ancient Egyptian cared about offering offerings and was distributed on the grave of the deceased, which is now known as mercy or the disc of mercy, as well as the visit of widowed wives to the graves of their husbands on Thursday and Friday. It is an ancient Pharaonic custom, as the great archaeologist Dr. Salim Hassan said, where the gods Isis visited the grave of her husband, the god Osiris On the island of Baja near Aswan on these two days each week, as well as the custom of forty, it is Pharaonic, where it was opened to the mummy to complete the embalming process at forty, as well as crying and wailing and placing dirt or mud over the heads of women.
The wedding ring is a sacred bond at the Pharaohs
The ancient Egyptians are the first to use the wedding ring in its circular form, because this is reflected in the union of men and women, because it is a vicious cycle without end, and it means eternity in love and continuity together, and of course means the continuation of marriage to infinity.
The Pharaohs called the wedding ring "the loop of resurrection" because it had neither the first nor the last, and it was made of gold, and the ring was placed in the right hand and after the marriage it was transferred to the left hand, and in this follow the teachings of God as the ruler of destiny and destiny.
