Public holidays in Palestine

The Nabi Musa festival, which commemorates the Prophet Moses, was one of the most prominent and involved large gatherings and processions.

These events were marked by religious ceremonies, special prayers, and communal gatherings throughout the Muslim communities in Palestine.
