How is Eid al-Fitr celebrated in India?
Eid al-Fitr is a grand celebration for Muslims around the world. On the day of Eid, Muslims start their day as usual by offering the morning prayers of Fajr, which is mandatory. Following that, there’s a special Eid al-Fitr prayer in open grounds, where Muslims gather in their best attire to thank Allah.

Muslims offering Eid al-Fitr prayers must give sadaqah al-Fitr (charity of fast-breaking) beforehand, a practice mandated on all able Muslims. This is to ensure the less fortunate are able to celebrate Eid. The prayer of Eid ul-Fitr consists of a sermon followed by a congregational prayer, which is different from the mandatory five prayers a day. After the prayers of Eid al-Fitr, Muslims greet each other. Feasts are arranged throughout the day, and family gatherings and celebrations are common in India.

Kul ‘am wa enta bi-khair! – (May every year find you in good health!)
