Eid Mubarak!

Eid Mubarak! Today begins Eid al-Fitr, translated as "the feast of fast-breaking" commemorating the end of the holy month of Ramadan during which Muslims fast from before dawn until after sunset each day. The activities of the 3-day celebration marking Eid al-Fitr vary from country to country but include prayer, visiting family and friends, giving presents, enjoying feasts, wearing new clothes, and visiting the graves of relatives. Through these celebrations, Muslims show their gratitude to Allah after reflecting and fasting during Ramadan.

There is an outpouring of kindness and charity to others. This charity, called Zakat al-Fitr helps ensure that all can participate in the festivities. Prayer consists of two cycles of standing and reciting the Qur'an, bowing, and prostrating in glorification of Allah, followed by a sermon and supplications, all led by an Imam. After prayers, and throughout the day, it is common to visit family and friends and exchange gifts.

Famed African American photographer Chester Higgins captured peace and power of prayer in his works featured in our collection: https://s.si.edu/3TCKdrV
