About the day
Eid al-Fitr falls on the first day of Shawwal, the month after Ramadan. It begins with special prayers and is a time for new clothes, family visits, food and giving to those in need. Islamic dates depend on the sighting or calculation of the new moon, so they may shift by a day and can differ between communities. Dates shown follow the Fiqh Council of North America's published calendar; check with local mosques nearer the time.
