Eid ul-Fitr, which was started by Prophet Muhammad himself is also known as The Feast of Breaking the Fast, and it's celebrated by Muslims worldwide.

Muslims mark the festival to also thank Allah for the Qur'an and the strength He gave them to exercise self-control throughout the month of fasting.

Amid the global pandemic, millions have observed the Salat Al Eid prayer and are celebrating the occasion with a feast in their homes with family and loved ones.
