President Christine Kangaloo has declared Wednesday, April 10th 2024, as the date of the public holiday in recognition of Eid-ul-Fitr.
It comes in accordance with the provisions of Section 4 (1) of the Public Holidays and Festivals Act, Chapter 19:05. President Kangaloo on the advice of the Cabinet, has declared Wednesday April 10th 2024 as the date of the public holiday in recognition of Eid-ul-Fitr.
For Muslims, Eid al-Fitr marks the end of the holy month of Ramadan. It’s a joyful holiday when the faithful celebrate the completion of 29 or 30 days of dawn-to-sunset fasting.
Eid al-Fitr is celebrated on the first day of the month of Shawwal, which follows Ramadan as the 10th month of the lunar-based Islamic calendar.
Like the start of Ramadan, the date of Eid is established by the sighting of the crescent moon, which generally appears one night after the new moon, and marks the onset of the month of Shawwal, the tenth of the Islamic Hijri calendar.
