🌙 Eid al-Fitr Countdown Clock 🎊
The real-time countdown to the end of Ramadan and the start of the Festival of Breaking the Fast.
Understanding Eid al-Fitr
**Eid al-Fitr** is a major Islamic holiday that marks the end of Ramadan, the Islamic holy month of fasting. Translating to the "Festival of Breaking the Fast," it is a time of joyous celebration, communal prayer, feasting, and giving charity (Zakat al-Fitr). The holiday typically lasts for one to three days.
Accurate Date Tracking:
The beginning of Eid al-Fitr is determined by the sighting of the new moon (hilal), marking the start of Shawwal, the tenth month of the Islamic calendar. Because the Islamic calendar is lunar, the Gregorian date of the holiday shifts approximately 10 to 12 days earlier each year. Our specialized countdown relies on the best available astronomical predictions to provide a continuous, accurate countdown to the expected date.
