Eid al-Fitr is an Islamic holiday that marks the end of Ramadan, and is celebrated during the first three days of Shawwal, the 10th month of the Islamic calendar. It is expected to begin on 10 or 11 April 2024, depending on the lunar calendar. The Muslims' holy month of Ramadan is the ninth month in the Islamic calendar, and it is believed that the revelation of the first verse in the Koran was during its last ten nights. It is celebrated yearly by praying during the nighttime and abstaining from eating, drinking, and sexual acts during the period between sunrise and sunset. EPA/QUDRATULLAH RAZWAN
