MUSLIMS around the world observe a month of fasting for Ramadan. Eid al-Fitr is the festival that Ramadan is the most sacred month in the Islamic calendar and as it comes to a close this week Muslims around the world will celebrate Eid al-Fitr. While Muslims observe four weeks of fasting during Ramadan, it is forbidden to fast on Eid. The festival is a joyous holiday when families and friends come together to share gifts and eat together.
Muslims use the month of Ramadan to give away their earthly needs, which is why they fast from sunrise to sunset every day of Ramadan.
Ramadan starts with the rising of the crescent moon and ends with the sighting of the Shawwal Moon.
Eid al-Fitr marks the end of Ramadan and the beginning of the tenth month in the Islamic calendar.
