Eid al-Fitr

Eid al-Fitr is expected to begin on Tuesday, March 9, 2027 (Hijri: 1 Shawwal 1448). Dates may vary by moon sighting.

There are 339 days until Eid al-Fitr.

It has been 15 days since Eid al-Fitr started.

Eid al-Fitr celebrates the conclusion of the Ramadan fasts and occurs on the 1st day of Shawwal (10th month). It is a day of gratitude to Allah, marked by special congregational prayers, family meals, and mandatory charity (Zakat al-Fitr) for the needy.

Eid al-Fitr is observed on 1 Shawwal every Hijri year.

Islamic holidays are determined according to the Hijri lunar calendar. The beginning of each month is traditionally confirmed by the visual sighting of the new crescent moon (hilal) after sunset. Consequently, dates can vary by a day between different regions depending on visibility conditions and geographic location.

Not always. Moon sighting can differ by location, so the date can differ by a day. You can use the Hijri date adjustment setting in this app to align with your local calendar.
