Holy days belong to religions, not to ethnic groups and "Arab" is an ethnic group. There are Sunni Muslim Arabs, Shiite Muslim Arabs, Christian Arabs, and Arabs of other minority religions all of whom have their own unique holidays. Since most Arabs are either Sunni or Shiite Muslims, the holidays that they share are commonly practiced by Arabs, like Eid al-Fitr or Eid al-Adha. Additionally, the day of long prayer every week for all Muslims (Arab or not) is Friday, but unlike among Jews and Christians, the day is not a holy day, just one of communal prayer.
