Eid al-Fitr 2024: A Time of Joy Amidst Global Reflection

 


As the crescent moon heralds the end of Ramadan, Muslims across the Arab world and beyond gather to celebrate Eid al-Fitr, a festival of breaking the fast, marked by communal prayers, feasts, and charity. This year’s festivities are tinged with a global consciousness, as communities worldwide reflect on current events and the true spirit of Eid as a time for unity, compassion, and giving.

In the Waterloo region, the day is filled with various events, embracing the joyous occasion as a public school board PD day allows students to join in the celebrations. Meanwhile, the global Muslim community feels the weight of the ongoing crisis in Gaza, reminding us that Eid is also a time for solidarity and support for those in need.
