his friends and relatives after the victory of the battle of
Jang-e-Badar.
Muslims are not only celebrating the end of fasting , but thanking
Allah for the help and strength that he gave them throughout the
previous month to help them practise self-control .
The festival begins when the first sight of the new moon is seen in the sky.
Muslims in most countriesrely on news of an official sighting, rather
than looking at the sky themselves.
The celebratory atmosphere is increased by everyone wearing bestor new
clothes, and decorating their homes.
There are special services out of doors and in mosques , processions
through the streets, and of course, a special celebratory meal - eaten
during daytime, the first daytime meal Muslims will have had in a
month.
Eid is also a time of forgiveness, and making amends.
