Eid al-Fitr & Zakat al-Fitr
Location : Throughout the UAE
Eid al-Fitr marks the end of Ramadan . Many Muslims attend communal prayers and listen to a khutba ( sermon ) during Eid al-Fitr . It is a time to celebrate with family and friends the completion of a month of blessings and joy . During the last few days of Ramadan , each Muslim offers Zakat Al Fitr , which equals 15 AED per fasting person . This is a token of thankfulness . Its purpose is to purify those who fast from any indecent act or speech and to help the poor and needy .
