Contrary to what everyone in the UAE was reckoning about this holiday to be on Tuesday, November 20th, 2018 as that is the exact date for Prophet Muhammad’s (PBUH) Birthday, the Ministry of Human Resources and Emiratisation took to twitter and announced that Sunday, November 18th, 2018 would rather be declared as a holiday adding to the two-day weekend.
تقرر أن يكون يوم الثامن عشر من شهر نوفمبر الجاري عطلة رسمية مدفوعة الأجر لجميع العاملين في منشآت ومؤسسات وشركات القطاع الخاص في الدولة بمناسبة #المولد_النبوي_الشريف. pic.twitter.com/V4Bd8YAHYs

The decision came forward after the Minister of Human Resources and Emiratisation, Nasir Bin Thani Juma Al Hamli issued a circular around the Ministry and extending his greetings to all the UAE citizens for this auspicious occasion.
Thus, we at dxboffplan.com, extend our heartiest greetings to all UAE citizens too and hope that they will have a good relaxing long weekend and their much deserved rest through it.
