In Indonesia itself, Muslims celebrate the Prophet's Birthday with various traditions that differ in each region. But generally, the celebration of the Prophet's Birthday always involves eggs.

Brilio.net reported from various sources Monday (16/9), not without reason, eggs are a symbol of Muslim celebrations that have a very philosophical meaning. Eggs are symbolized as three layers of Islam. The shell as Faith, the egg white as Islam, while the egg yolk as Ihsan.

In a video that went viral on social media, there is a vision of the blessings of the Prophet's Birthday congregation whose contents are jaw-dropping. The short video that was re-shared by the Instagram account @undercover.id, shows men who have just finished attending the Prophet's Birthday study.
