About Eid al-Fitr
Eid al-Fitr (Festival of Breaking the Fast) is one of the two major Islamic holidays, celebrated at the end of Ramadan. It is a day of joy, gratitude, prayer, and feasting. Muslims attend special Eid prayers in the morning, visit family and friends, exchange gifts, and give Zakat al-Fitr (charitable donations) to ensure all can celebrate. The greeting "Eid Mubarak" (Blessed Eid) is shared throughout the day.
