The holiday celebrates the end of the 30 days (may vary) of dawn-to-sunset fasting during the holy month of Ramadan. Eid fall on the first day of Shawwal, the first and only day in the month where Muslims are allowed not to fast. During Eid, people pray and reflect their sacrifices from the previous month. And well, the coming hours, they will be feasting in various and sumptuous meal that will be shared by one house to everyone. Likewise, to commemorate the new year, people wear new clothes to attract blessings and have a good kick start. Oh, and yes, gifts are everywhere, families visit the homes of their relatives and offer their greetings for the holiday.

What is beautiful in Eid is that people share, they give clothes, food, donations and other pertinent goods to charities and non-governmental groups to help people in need.

The spirit of generosity is heightened and it feels like the most blessed period of the year.

Let us keep each other warm and lets spread the blessings of God to our family and to the world.
