**EID MUBARAK**
Coming with the new moon, the festival marks the end of 'Ramadan' - a month when Muslims fast throughout the day and eat only at night Prayers, feasts and family get- together are the major highlights of the Eid ul fitr celebrations. It was during this month that the holy Koran was revealed. Eid means recurring happiness or festivity. Eid is celebrated in India with much enthusiasm and fervor and Muslims from all strata of life can be seen adorned in beautiful new clothes, visiting the mosques to attend Salatul Eid (Eid prayers). Greetings of "Eis Mubarak" or "a blessed Eid" are exchanged.
A very important aspect of eid is the charity, which all the Muslims are expected to extend to the needy. Earlier, this was in the form of gifts in kind but now cash is given to the needy. The first Eid of the year is known as "Eid Ul Fitr". Ul Fitr literally means breaking of fast. Thus Eid Ul Fitr is celebrated on the first day of Shawaal, the tenth month in the Muslim calendar, to mark the end of a month long fast during the month of Ramadan.
Let us thanks Allah that he has given us an another auspicious day in our life. And let us also pray that we get so many Ramadans like this in our up coming life time.
I pray to Allah on this blessed night-- Ya Allah, for me, for my parents, for my ancestors, For my future generations, for those who asked me to Dua, for those who Dua for me, or those who I promised to Dua, for my relations, for my friends and for the mumins all over the world, I beg you to bless us with healthy life, enough wealth, long lifetime and peaceful stay in this world.
My dear TLians I wish you all a very happy Eid...
Love,
Nafee.
