Eid al-Fitr (1st Shawwal)
Signification, histoire et dates observées
The 'Festival of Breaking the Fast', Eid al-Fitr is a day of joy, community, and divine prizes for those who completed the month of Ramadan.
Signification spirituelle
It is the 'Day of Reward'. The Prophet (PBUH) said that on the morning of Eid, the angels stand at the corners of the streets calling out: 'O Muslims, come to your Generous Lord! He commands good and gives great rewards.' Zakat al-Fitr (Fitrana) must be given before the prayer, ensuring no one goes hungry.
Leçons pour le croyant

- Performing Ghusl (ritual bath) and wearing one's best clothes — honouring Allah's celebration outwardly reflects inner gratitude.
- Reciting the Takbirat: 'Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar...' — filling the streets with the remembrance of Allah.
