during this month by
the angel Jibril.

gates of hell are closed
and the gates of
heaven are open.
• The Prophet
Muhammad declared
the last day of
Ramadan as a day of
celebration

feeling of brotherhood.
'Fitr' is derived from
the word 'fatar'
meaning 'breaking’.
The weeks of fasting
came to an end.
When does the festival begin?

themselves.
