What is Eid al- fitr
Eid literally means a “festival” or “feast” in Arabic. There are two major eids in the Islamic calendar per year – Eid al-Fitr earlier in the year and Eid al-Adha later. Why is Eid celebrated? Eid al-Fitr is one of two major holidays celebrated by Muslims and commemorates the end of the holy month of Ramadan, in which Muslims fast daily from before dawn until sunset. It is commemorated by a large, community-wide prayer service in the morning, followed by meals and conversation with friends and family.@Kate 2601:406:4402:5840:B0E4:246E:C58:2D5 (talk) 20:10, 15 January 2024 (UTC)

- Is there a specific part of the article you wish to correct? Amyipdev (talk) 15:36, 10 April 2024 (UTC)
Is there a reason why so many images were deleted and future eid table was severely cut back?
Particularly the table, I found the extended list useful since the holiday moves back in the Gregorian calendar. Dervish10 (talk) 02:14, 18 October 2024 (UTC)
- Yes, because they are of no use, Future dates that go to 2040 are, too, of no use, and they increase the size of the article making it take longer to load Abo Yemen✉ 05:36, 18 October 2024 (UTC)
Egypt section
I can't tell when the edits were made to this section, but something is off. I'd like to double-check that it isn't something which can be reverted before trying to edit it to be more readable. Sock-the-guy (talk) 20:58, 14 March 2025 (UTC)
- @Sock-the-guy I went through the hist of the article and found this edit 𐩣𐩫𐩧𐩨 Abo Yemen (𓃵) 08:03, 15 March 2025 (UTC)
- That seems to be the culprit. Thanks! Sock-the-guy (talk) 15:55, 17 March 2025 (UTC)
Eid al-Fitr is also a public holiday in India
The page has an incorrect image that does not show India includes in the countries where Eid is a public holiday. Even the page says that Eid is a public holiday in India but the image "Countries where Eid al-Fitr is an Official Public Holiday.jpeg" is cinrrectly depcited.
Please correct. 14.143.67.50 (talk) 06:37, 31 March 2025 (UTC)
Dates of Eid al-Fitr in Saudi Arabia
Is there a particular reason why the entries in that table are not uniform? Some have a space at the beginning and some are in italics. Does that have any particular meaning? Because if yes, it should be made explicit. Paprikaiser (talk) 21:20, 24 April 2025 (UTC)
- I think the spaces are erroneous, but the italics probably mean the prediction was wrong 𐩣𐩫𐩧𐩨 Abo Yemen (𓃵) 06:09, 25 April 2025 (UTC)
- I think you can see that already when looking at the table, so the style seems a bit superfluous. Another problem is that most cells do not have any sources. I have found some and will add them soon. Paprikaiser (talk) 18:44, 26 April 2025 (UTC)
- Nevermind, the first reference is already covering the period from 2001 to 2025. But it is not so clear, so I guess that is why the extra references were added. Since they are redundant, they should be removed. Maybe a new column for references should be added? The only one missing is from the year 2000. I also have found this link, which shows the predicted dates according to the Umm al-Qura calendar up to 2035, but it might be a bit too much to include. Paprikaiser (talk) 19:17, 26 April 2025 (UTC)
