Guyana's public holiday celebrating the birth of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). A day of prayer, community gatherings, and reflection observed by Guyana's Muslim community and respected nationwide.
Youman Nabi (also known as Mawlid an-Nabi) marks the birthday of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) and is a public holiday in Guyana.
The Muslim community observes the day with special prayers at mosques, community gatherings, and charitable activities. It is a day that reflects Guyana's deep respect for its diverse religious heritage — the Islamic community has been an integral part of Guyanese society for generations.
Mosques across Georgetown, Berbice, and the East Coast hold special programmes, and many families prepare traditional food to share with neighbours of all faiths.
