Religion and spirituality are fundamental aspects of Palestinian life, profoundly shaping the community’s values, traditions, and daily routines. Islam is the predominant religion in Palestine, with the majority of Palestinians adhering to Sunni Islam. Religious practices and festivals, such as Ramadan, Eid al-Fitr, and Eid al-Adha, play a central role in community life, fostering a sense of unity and shared identity.
