Eid is a religious festival that Muslims all over the world celebrate. It marks the end of the holy month of Ramadan. We start our fast with our first prayer and end our fast with our 4 prayers. It's almost 11 hours and we can't drink or eat anything at that time. After 30 days of our fasting, we celebrate our Eid. Eid ul-Fitr is one of the most important festivals celebrated by Muslims all over the world. It falls on the first day of Shawwal, the tenth month of the Islamic lunar calendar.

The festival marks the end of the holy month of Ramadan, during which Muslims fast from sunrise to sunset. Eid ul-Fitr is a time to celebrate, to be thankful for the blessings of Allah, and to spend time with family and friends. The day begins with a special prayer called Eid prayer, which is offered in the mosque or an open-air venue. After the prayer, people exchange greetings, hugs, and gifts, especially with children. Eidi is the money given to children by elders on the occasion of Eid, which is a festival for Muslims around the world.

There are several reasons why Eidi is important to give to children on Eid. Giving Eidi to children is a way of promoting the spirit of sharing and giving. Receiving Eidi brings joy and happiness to children. It is a tradition that children look forward to that, and it makes them feel loved.

Food is an essential part of any celebration, and during Eid ul-Fitr, special dishes are prepared to mark the occasion. Families come together to enjoy traditional dishes such as biryani, kebabs, and sweet desserts such as sheer khurma. Eid ul-Fitr is not just a festival of feasting and celebration but also a day of charity and forgiveness. Muslims are encouraged to give to the needy people, Ramadan tells us about "Sabar "(Patience). Eid ul-Fitr is a time of great joy and happiness for Muslims all around the world.
