Marhaba! Mother’s Day is celebrated on March 21st across the Arab world. It coincides with the beginning of the beautiful Spring season. In the past, I have shared Marcel Khalife’s beautiful ballad, ‘To My Mother,’ and today, I want to share what I think are the top 10 quotes for mother’s day! Please note that some are originally in Arabic, while others in English. I have translated them either way to help you all learn, appreciate, understand, and most importantly, use these beautiful expressions. On this occasion, I want to wish all the mothers out there and mothers to be among our Arabic lovers a very Happy Mother’s Day (عيد أم سعيد)! May you all have years of happiness, good health, and love.
