Her Highness’s Heartfelt Tribute on Omani Mother’s Day
Motherhood is the essence of love, sacrifice, and strength, and every year, Oman honors its mothers with a special day dedicated to their invaluable contributions. On this occasion, Her Highness Sayyida Ahad bint Abdullah Al Busaidi, the First Lady of Oman, shared a heartfelt message recognizing the love, resilience, and unwavering dedication of Omani mothers in shaping families and society.
The History and Origin of Omani Mother’s Day
While many countries celebrate International Mother’s Day in May, Oman marks Mother’s Day on March 21st, aligning with Arab Mother’s Day, which is widely observed across the Middle East.
The tradition began in 1956 in Egypt, when journalist Mustafa Amin proposed the idea after hearing a story of a widowed mother who dedicated her life to raising her children. The concept quickly spread across Arab nations, and today, Oman proudly celebrates Mother’s Day every March 21st, honoring the strength and sacrifices of mothers.
