In Egypt, receiving an award is often celebrated with 'Zaghrouta' (ululation) by women in the family to express intense joy. In the Gulf, major awards are often under the patronage of Sheikhs or Kings, adding a layer of high prestige and formal protocol to the phrase. In Lebanon and Syria, the phrase is often followed by 'Mabrouk' and a specific response like 'Allah Yibarek fik'. In North Africa, academic awards are highly celebrated, often involving traditional sweets like 'Baklawa' or 'Makroud' for guests.
