Maulide
Maulide is a traditional dance in honor of the Prophet Mohammed , which is danced on the Ilha de Moçambique and other areas of northern Mozambique .
Unlike in its place of origin, Arabia (see also Maulid an-Nabī ), in Mozambique - under a different name - the dance is also sung and danced by women.
