On the occasion of Eid al-Fitr, marking the end of each year's Ramadan, Muslims around the world celebrate the end of the fasting month of Ramadan. Depending on the sighting of the moon, Ramadan is 29 or 30 days.
Eid al-Fitr translates in Arabic to “festival of breaking the fast” and that means celebrations can involve traditional deserts and sweets, among other foods.
This sermon was delivered at the Muslim Community Center - East Bay (MCC East Bay) in Pleasanton, California on Wednesday, April 10, 2024.
