As Ramadan drew to a close yesterday, Muslims worldwide will celebrate Eid-ul-Fitr today.
This celebration will depend entirely if a crescent moon was seen last night. If not then the celebration will take place on Saturday.
Eid-ul-Fitr means the feast of the breaking of the fast.
It is also the first day after Ramadan where Muslims are not permitted to fast.
While the men are at mosque to pray, women will prepare food and later invite or visit friends and family for the feast.
We would like to wish all our Muslim readers Eid Mubarak.
