How to Say Happy New Year in Arabic17

The new year is a time for celebration and renewal. It is a time to reflect on the past year and to look forward to the future. For many people, the new year is also a time to travel and to experience new cultures.

If you are planning to travel to an Arabic-speaking country for the new year, it is important to know how to say "Happy New Year" in Arabic. The most common way to say "Happy New Year" in Arabic is "Kul 'am wa enta bi-khayr" (كُلّ عَامٍ وَأَنْتَ بِخَيْر). This phrase means "May every year find you in good health." It is typically said to someone who is close to you, such as a family member or friend.

If you are speaking to someone who is not close to you, you can say "Taqabbal Allahu minna wa minkum" (تَقَبَّلَ اللَّهُ مِنَّا وَمِنْكُمْ). This phrase means "May God accept from us and from you." It is a more formal way of saying "Happy New Year" and is typically used in professional settings.

No matter how you choose to say it, saying "Happy New Year" in Arabic is a great way to show your appreciation for the Arabic culture and to wish your friends and family all the best for the year to come.

Here are some additional tips for saying "Happy New Year" in Arabic:
When saying "Kul 'am wa enta bi-khayr" to someone who is younger than you, you should say "Kul 'am wa enta bi-khayr, ya habibi" (كُلّ عَامٍ وَأَنْتَ بِخَيْرٍ، يَا حَبِيبِي). This means "May every year find you in good health, my dear."

When saying "Taqabbal Allahu minna wa minkum" to someone who is older than you, you should say "Taqabbal Allahu minni wa minkum" (تَقَبَّلَ اللَّهُ مِنِّي وَمِنْكُمْ). This means "May God accept from me and from you."

You can also add the phrase "wa anta minhum" (وَأَنْتَ مِنْهُمْ) to either of the above phrases to wish the person that they will be among those who are successful in the new year. For example, you could say "Kul 'am wa enta bi-khayr, wa anta minhum" (كُلّ عَامٍ وَأَنْتَ بِخَيْرٍ، وَأَنْتَ مِنْهُمْ) or "Taqabbal Allahu minna wa minkum, wa anta minhum" (تَقَبَّلَ اللَّهُ مِنَّا وَمِنْكُمْ، وَأَنْتَ مِنْهُمْ).

I hope this helps you to say "Happy New Year" in Arabic like a native speaker. Have a happy and prosperous new year!
