\n\tEid-Al-Fitr is the most important festival celebrated by the Muslim community. The festival is celebrated at the end of ninth month of the Islamic calendar i.e. during the end of holy month of Ramadan. The word ‘EID is derived from the word ‘wd’ means festival and that comes from ‘uzhaiyya’ which translates to ‘sacrifice’.\n<\/p>\n

\n\tFor the whole month, the muslim community performs strict fasting from dawn to dusk. They serve a month-long fast called Roza during the month of Ramadan. They don’t eat anything, not even drink during the daytime. All the family members sit together and give their offerings at the time of sun set. They believe that this will purify and make them disciplined. In addition to the fasting, muslims are even encouraged to read entire Quran.\n<\/p>\n

\n\tPeople on the day of Eid-Al-Fitr congratulate, greet and embrace each other by saying ‘Id Mubarak’ or ‘Happy Id’. The festival of Eid is celebrated with great enthusiasm where children wear new clothes and visit their friends and relatives. Children’s are mostly excited because they receive many gifts from their elders. The women in the family prepares different delicacy of sweets and even distribute amongst each other which is one of the perks of the festival season. People then go to a mosque, read Namaz and pray to Allah, with a hope that Allah will provide them with patience and prosperity. On this occasion, people give alms called Zakat to poor people. Delicious dishes like “Segways” are served in this festival. It is the time to forget all the past differences and grievances. This festival unites all the Muslims all over the world.
