Muslims around the world have begun celebrating Eid al-Fitr, one of the biggest celebrations in the Islamic calendar.
Eid al-Fitr – which means “festival of the breaking of the fast” – is celebrated at the end of Ramadan, a month of fasting for many adults, as well as spiritual reflection and prayer.
