Eid and Books – The Perfect Combo

Austin-Macauley-Eid-AlFitr


Eid-ul-Fitr is the blessed festivity that every Muslim around the world celebrates after completing the holy month of fasting i-e Ramadan.

 

This Eid is a gift from Almighty Allah to his people for successfully fasting for a month. Eid is not just a worldly festival, but its significance is purely spiritual. It is the occasion of family gettogether, friends’ hangouts and taking care of the less privileged. This Eid is also known for the distribution of sweets among family members and neighbors.
