From radiant hues to deep burgundy, shades of red are all the rage this season... and, well, all year long. This comes as no surprise since the color is notably associated with love, warmth, and comfort, along with intense emotions.

As Arabs, the color has a unique place in various aspects of our lives, majorly appearing in our cuisine, household staples, traditional attire, as well as our national flags.

Arabs are pretty much in love with red, here's proof:
