Muslims are currently celebrating the holy month of Ramadan before the Islamic calendar moves on to the Eid ul Fitr celebrations.
The celebrations, which means 'festival of breaking' the fast signals an end to the dawn-to-dusk daily fasting of Ramadan. Based on attempts to sight the moon in the UK, Eid will either be tonight or Saturday, April 22.
This is a huge event for Liverpool’s 30,000 Muslims as Abdi Ahmed tells me after I visited the city’s largest mosque, Al-Rahma, in L8 on Hatherley Street.
