Kuwait has announced the tentative official holiday dates for Eid al-Fitr 2024. The holiday will begin on Tuesday, April 9th, and end on Saturday, April 13th. The first day of Eid al-Fitr, which marks the end of the holy month of Ramadan, is determined by the sighting of the new moon. The official holiday dates may vary slightly depending on the exact date of the moon sighting.
During Eid al-Fitr, Muslims celebrate the end of Ramadan by exchanging gifts, visiting family and friends, and attending special prayers. Many people also take advantage of the holiday to travel or go on vacation. In Kuwait, the government declares a multi-day holiday for Eid al-Fitr, giving residents time to celebrate and spend time with loved ones.
The exact date of Eid al-Fitr is determined by the sighting of the new moon. In Kuwait, the moon sighting committee will meet on the evening of Monday, April 8th, to look for the new moon. If the new moon is sighted, Eid al-Fitr will begin on Tuesday, April 9th. However, if the new moon is not sighted on April 8th, the holiday will begin on Wednesday, April 10th.
