Eid-ul-Fitar, the Muslim festival that marks the end of Ramadan, the month of fasting. Families and friends will gather today to enjoy good food and each other’s company. Many Muslim children look forward to celebrating Eid, and for many people the social aspects are just as important as the festival’s religious significance. In addition, many Muslims use Eid as an occasion to help those who are less fortunate, by making their annual payment of obligatory alms (zakat in Arabic), which in Sunni Islam are equivalent to 2.5 percent of annual income after living expenses. Zakat is one of the five pillars of Islam, together with the Declaration of Faith, Prayer, Fasting during the month of Ramadan, and the Pilgrimage to Mecca.
Pre-Eid Celebrations was held at BFKG where the students happily made eid cards for their parents, girls applied henna on their hands and wore bangels gifted from school and everybody enjoyed a lot with their friends.
May Allah bring you joy, happiness, peace and prosperity on this blessed occasion. May the magic of this Eid fill your heart with love and your mind with wisdom. Wishing you and your loved ones Eid Mubarak
