"Hafla" pronounced from the Arabic "Khafla" (soft "a" in the word) is a "get-together" ,party,ceremony for a family gathering,clan,religious ceremony which may have an intimate number of friends or many people invited. For instance an Arab Muslim man can do the Commandment of circumscision for his son in a small group, or honour it with a "hafla" (Khaflah).
It is an Arabic word, though the majority of Arabs are Muslims and some Christians, at a Muslim Khaflah you would not find alcoholic drinks. There might be similar smokeable items which are on hand. There might be Belly-Dancing for entertainment, much food for sure,music,dancing , hookah smoking (nargila-waterpipe).

Get the Halak mug.Dubai’s biggest chamak and fuck boy. He calls himself halal even though he never prays once. He wears fake shit and thinks he is a hype beast. Tells everyone he is persian even though he is afghani. He roams mostly in dubai mall with his other friend khaloof rae (another chamak) and think they’re so cool. They flirt with 12 year olds and think they’re cool. He smokes drinks and acts big and listens to 21 savage
If you see him anywhere walk the other side he is very chamak

Get the halal papi mug.A small, low-key social gathering centered around bellydancing and food. May include costume vendors and live music.
In order to provide students with a low-stakes arena in which to perform, as well as to expose them to the style of other bellydancers, Rasha hosts a hafla at the end of every eight-week session that she teaches.

A person who is modest and respects themselves, so doesn't do anything that disrespects islam and does not flaunt themselves.
