A to Z April Challenge

Xebec, it is !

This post is part of the A to Z Challenge. My theme for the month is A to Z of words in English with an Arabic origin.

X-day might be one of the most difficult one in the A to Z Challenge. I am quite surprised to find an actual word beginning with X which has an Arabic origin. (Initially, I was planning to be cheeky and use X-ray for today, connecting the Algebraic X And Arabic origin :P)
