The Celebration of Eid-ul-Fitr

Eid-ul-Fitr

Eid-ul Fitr, commonly known as Eid, marks the end of the auspicious month of Ramadan for all Muslims across the globe. Eid-ul Fitr is an Arabic word. Eid means a festival or festivity, while fitr indicates the end of all vicious and corrupt habits and the breaking of the fasting duration. This holy festival is celebrated after the new crescent is sighted on the previous evening, usually after twenty-nine or thirty fasts.

On this blessed day, Muslims customarily wake up early in the morning and have breakfast. This is a sign that fasting has ended on that day. Commonly, it consists of vermicelli's or dates. All Muslim men then attend a special Eid prayer (salah) that is performed in congregation at mosques, and in open spaces such as fields and parks. Muslims are emboldened to wear their best clothes, preferably new when attending the prayer. No Adhaan or "call to prayer" is announced. The virtuous prayer consists of two rakaats. The Eid prayer is followed by a Khutba and then a dua (litany) to ask for forgiveness for all our sins and a plea to Allah Almighty for acceptance of all fasts kept. The sermon also teaches Muslims about the rituals of Eid such as Zakaat. It is then compulsory for everyone to greet each other and embrace them. Muslim women, on the other hand, perform the Eid prayer at their respective homes.

After salaah, people visit the houses of their friends and relatives and give small gifts to each other. Some people also pay visits to graveyards to remember their loved ones and clear the graves of over-growth. Many other customs also form part of Eid, such as Fitrana. Every Muslim able to pay these alms must do so for the month of Ramadan. It consists of about two kilograms of basic foodstuffs such as raisins, barley, sugar, milk, dates, wheat etc, or an equivalent amount of cash. This is given to poor and needy Muslim brothers before the Eid prayer. It can also be given in the month of Ramadan so the person receiving the aid can use it for Eid purchases.

Besides the religious aspects, Eid is a very cheerful occasion for all Muslims as it represents personal jubilance, a victory over self-control and chastity, illustrating salvation and rejuvenation. The first three days of Eid are celebrated on a grand scale. Dinners and parties are held, gifts are exchanged and people dress exuberantly.

It is also a time to forget past enmity or fights and forgive everyone, thus accepting them with an open heart.

Eid Ul Fitr 2011

Significance of Eid Ul Fitr

In Islam, there are two major festivities and these are called The 'Eidain' meaning the two eids. Eid in Arabic means something or some event that recurs or comes back at regular intervals. The two eids are eid ul fitr and eid ul adha. Eid ul fitr marks the end of the holy month of Ramadan, which is the eight month of the Islamic calendar characterized by fasting.

In the month of Ramadan,Muslims all over the world abstain from eating, drinking, conjugal relations from dawn to dusk. This is the external manifestation of this spiritual act of fasting. However, as with all acts of worship there is a deeper inner dimension as well. This involves the cleansing of the heart and mind from evil thoughts and purging the tongue and the limbs from the inclination towards vain talk, gossip, back-biting etc and guarding the senses from indulging in the Forbidden, looking at the Forbidden, listening to the Forbidden,touching the Forbidden or walking towards the Forbidden.



The month of Ramadan is marked by increased acts of charity, of prayer, of devotion, of remembrance of God and acts of humanitarian assistance and strengthening familial bonds. The Muslims as a community, are involved in a month long rigorous exercise in patience in restraining their desires in self sacrifice, in devout worship and in magnanimous acts of easing the sufferings of human kind. All of this constitutes a sustained spiritual and physical exercise in helping them to become better human beings and more obedient creatures of the All Mighty.

At the end of this month long fasting with the sighting of the new moon begins Eid Ul Fitr. This is a unique celebration in that it is a form of thanksgiving to the Creator for giving them the opportunity of spiritual cleansing and of sharing the blessings they enjoy with the less fortunate ones. As Allah says in the Holy Qumran Ch 2 V 185 'Allah wishes for you ease and does not wish for you hardship and that you may fulfill the prescribed period and that you proclaim the greatness of Allah that He guided you and so that you may be grateful'.

The eid day is marked by charity which precedes the congregational prayer and the logical reasoning behind this is to enable the less fortunate ones to participate in the joys of eid. It has been narrated in a Hadith that on this day the Angels descend and meet the believers at every street corner and give them glad tidings of the acceptance of their fast, their prayers, and their charity and of their deliverance from the hellfire.

In conclusion, the Eid Ul Fitr distinguishes itself from standard celebrations in that it is an exercise in spiritual upliftment and humanitarian acts of kindness and magnanimity.
