Idu’l Fitr
National Holiday in India
On November 15, colleagues in India celebrate Idu’l Fitr.
In India, the festival is known as Idu’l Fitr and in Singapore and Malaysia, as Hari Raya Puasa, though both mark the end of the fasting period of the Islamic month of Ramadan.
The festival is a time for feasting, rejoicing and thankfulness.
The preparations for the festival start at the beginning of Ramadan.
When the day finally arrives and the period of fasting ends, children receive many gifts, there are fairs with street bazaars selling festive goods and traditional foods.
Many attend religious ceremonies and visit with friends and family.
This is one of the most anticipated holidays on the Muslim calendar.
