REASONS WHY IT IS MY FAVORITE FESTIVAL

Eid al-Fitr is called the "Celebration of Ending the Fast." The act of first light to-nightfall fasting during the sacred month of Ramadan ("Sawm") is one of the five mainstays of Islam. It is my favorite festival because Muslims accept that it was during the period of Ramadan that the text of the Qur'an was uncovered to the Prophet Muhammad.

The petitions are trailed by a lesson, wherein the imam requests absolution, kindness, and harmony for each being across the world.
