Eid Al-Fitr



Eid Al-Fitr is one of the most important celebration for Muslim people all around the world. Its only three days and it’s after Ramadan;that is, the month that every Muslim fast from sunrise until sunset.Its called Eid Al-Fitr because its the festival of fast breaking.It falls on the first day of Shawwal,the month which follows Ramadan in the Islamic calender.Before the day of Eid every Muslim family donates a determined amount of donation to the poor people ;for example,rice dates,bread...just to make sure that the poor people will have a great holiday like we do.This donation is called ‘Sadaqat Alfitr’.Usually in Arab countries,all three days of Eid is a holiday for all schools and governments and some companies.There are a lot of things that we do on Eid Al-fitr;for instance,on the first day of Eid Al-Fitr,all Muslims meet in the early morning in the mosque to perform the Eid prayer.After that,we visit our families and friends and we also give gifts specially for children.Lastly,when we go back home,we call our relatives that are in different countries to wish them a happy holiday.In short,Eid Al-fitr is one of the most important and amazing holidays for Muslims.
