The Prophet Muhammad's birthday is a solemn holiday, with people observing the occasion rather than celebrating it. Festivities are kept to a minimum.

The public and private sectors in the UAE typically have the same holidays.

Even though some of the longest holidays have already happened this year, people in the UAE can still enjoy some time off and long weekends, including for the Prophet Muhammad's birthday and National Day.
