Ramzan is the month of silence and sincere remembrance of the Lord. For the over 1.5 billion muslims across the globe, it is a time marked by prayer, penitence and the wilful sacrifice of one’s personal comforts and pleasures in honour of the divine. At the end of Ramzan, the day after the New Moon is sighted, is celebrated as Eid-ul-fitr.
‘Eid’ means ‘Joy’ and ‘Fitr’ means ‘charity’. Hence Eid ul-fitr means ‘derive happiness through charity’. During this festival, one not only remembers God , but also the poor. Eid promotes the idea that the individual can be happy only if he contributes to making the entire society happy.
