Eid Al-Fitr 2023: Date, History, Significance, Theme, Facts, Celebrations Ideas, Wishes, Quotes, Pics & Images! Eid Ul-Fitr known as the “Festival of Breaking Fast” is the marking of the ending of Ramadan month. Ramadan is the holy month. Ramadan is the holiest month for Muslims which they try to maintain by doing good deeds, being kind, abstaining from any kind of immoral acts, and seeking forgiveness for their sins.
During this month Muslims around the world perform fasting and after a month-long of fasting, they celebrate the end of it with the celebration called Eid Al-Fitr. The festival is a very crucial time in Islam. It enables families, loved ones, and communities to come together and rejoice after a month of fasting and devotion to Allah (SWT). Eid Al-Fitr marks the beginning of the Shawwal which is the number 10 month in the Islamic calendar.
History of Eid Al-Fitr
Muslims around the world have the hardcore conviction that during the holy month of Ramadan, the Prophet Muhammad received the first revelation of the Holy Quran. Few scholars believe that after Jang-e-Badr ‘s triumphant battle, Prophet Mohammed and his disciples celebrated the first Eid al-Fitr in 624 CE.
Eid al-Fitr signals the end of the dawn-to-dusk fast conducted at the time of Ramadan and the start of the Shawwal month. Eid al-Fitr is also celebrated for paying reverence to God for granting strength, tenacity, and moral guidance during the practices of month-long fasting.
When is Eid Al-Fitr 2023?
Because the date of Eid depends on the moon’s appearance, the exact date of observance around the world can vary. The declaration of Eid Al-Fitr ‘s precise dates cannot occur until the ending announcement of Ramadan which varies depending on the region due to moon sightings.
Morocco’s Ministry of Islamic Affairs has announced that the Shawwal moon has been sighted, meaning Ramadan will end and Eid ul Fitr will be on Friday, April 21.
Morocco World News, along with news agency MAP, confirmed that astronomers sighted the moon on Sunday evening. It means Ramadan in Morocco has ended after 29 days, for the fifth year in a row.
Ramadan ran for the full 30 days in many other countries including Saudi Arabia, UAE, Qatar, and Egypt.
How to celebrate Happy Eid Al Fitr 2023?
Muslims across the globe join in on the celebration of Eid al-Fitr by engaging in prayers specifically for EID that is accompanied by a sermon shortly after dawn. The day begins with devotees wearing new clothing, exchanging greetings by saying “Eid Mubarak,” meaning “have a blessed Eid,” hugging each other while doing so, visiting each other’s houses,s and eating various foods served in the visited houses.
In fact, the celebration of the day revolves around the serving of a variety of dishes including Biryani, Haleem, Shemai, Kebabs, and traditional delicious foods depending on the country. It’s a day for immense joy for the children as they receive gifts from their elders which are known as Eidi. Muslims also practice the task of providing alms to the poor which is known as Zakat (one of the five pillars of Islam). Muslims are urged to resolve conflicts on this day because it is the day of pardon.
Throughout Ramadan, Muslims around the world consistently follow a fasting ritual between the hours of sunset and sunrise and spend a great deal of time in self-reflection while reciting the Quran and communicating on a spiritual level with Allah ( SWT). After a complete month of devotion and commitment, Eid-ul-Fitr is a time to come together and enjoy everyday blessings with family and loved ones.
Why is Eid Celebrated?
Ramadan is a month of self-introspection and correcting one’s way of living according to Allah’s shown path of mercy. They abstain from drinking any drinks, or food and also refrain from any sort of misdoings as a way of seeking forgiveness for their past misdoings and forging a better path for themselves in the days to come. It’s not an easy task and thus EID is believed to be a celebration of their reward from Allah.
