Eid-ul-Fitr, often simply called Eid, is a significant Islamic festival celebrated by Islam believers worldwide. It marks the end of Ramadan, the holy month of fasting, prayer, and reflection. The date of Eid-ul-Fitr is determined by the sighting of the new moon, signifying the start of the Islamic month of Shawwal, the 10th month of the muslim lunar calendar.
On Eid morning, Muslims gather for special prayers, known as Salat al-Eid, usually held in mosques or large open spaces. After the prayers, they engage in festive activities, which often include exchanging gifts, sharing meals with family and friends, and giving to charity to help those in need. Sweet treats and traditional dishes are prepared and enjoyed as part of the celebrations.
