Thousands of Muslims offer Eid Al Fitr Prayers, Share greetings on the occasion of Eid Al Fitr
Eid Al Fitr 2023 is officially being celebrated on Friday, April 21 in the UAE, after the country's moon-sighting committee spotted the Shawwal crescent on April 20.
The sighting of the crescent moon is a signal of the end of the holy month of Ramadan and also marks the first day of Islamic calendar month Shawwal.
Since Eid is on a Friday this year, mosques have hosted two sermons: One for Eid and the other for the Jumuah prayers.
Residents will enjoy a 4-day break to celebrate the Islamic festival. The first long weekend of the year began on Thursday, and offices and schools will resume on Monday, April 24.
