- HAFR AL-BATIN: You wan’t Eid presents? I’ll give you Eid presents! This was the sentiment expressed by a man in Hafr Al-Batin, Eastern Province when, according to Al-Yaum Arabic daily, he divorced his wife after she demanded Eid money and presents.
The paper quoted a marriage counselor saying divorces that occur during Eid tend to be a result of disputes over expenses or related to husbands traveling abroad without their families to celebrate Eid.
