Muslims around the world celebrated Eid al-Fitr this week. The celebration marks an end to the holy month of Ramadan, a period of praying in the evenings and fasting between sunrise and sunset. The Nizamiye Turkish Mosque in Midrand is believed to be the largest mosque complex in the southern hemisphere.
