    What It Is

    The first of Shawwal — the celebration that ends Ramadan. A day of new clothes, embraces, sweets, and the zakat al-fitr given to those in need so that all may rejoice.

    How to Observe It

    Give something today — money, food, forgiveness — so that someone else's joy is enlarged by your abundance.
