This photo was taken from Gaza. Though the siege it falls under and the obstacles it faces, but it spreads hope and joy. Notwithstanding all these hardships, those people with innocent hearts practice their favorite hobby and play football amid the debris of their ruined houses. They are sharing moments of joy in the middle of long-lasting suffering. This is our hero Abdullah who lost his leg but never loses hope

  • Palestinian Wedding - Henna Night
  • Gaza Palestine

"Henna Night in villages is the most important night for the bride, it precedes the wedding night by a day or two. Its an old Palestinian custom in which relatives and friends of the bride gather to celebrate her, say goodbye to her as it's her last night in her father's house and sing sad folk songs called (Al-Tarwida), which depicts the bride clings to her family and friends. In this night, many brides wear the traditional costume, which is, according to the Palestinian heritage, the embroidered Palestinian dress. These pictures show joy and celebration moments of the bride that starts from preparing her for this night to the moments of bringing the candles-decorated henna that represent a Palestinian tradition and the final moments of celebrations full of dancing and singing.
