Bahrain Declares the first day date of Eid Al Fitr 2024

asmaa - | World News

Bahrain has determined that the commencement of Eid al-Fitr will be on Wednesday, April 10, marking the end of Ramadan, as the new moon was not sighted on Monday.

This decision solidifies the duration of Ramadan in the country this year at 30 days. The announcement confirms that Eid al-Fitr will officially commence on April 10 throughout Bahrain.

In preparation for the festivities, Bahrain had previously declared public holidays for government employees to commemorate the occasion. Prince Salman bin Hamad Al Khalifa, who serves as the Crown Prince and Prime Minister, issued a circular on April 7 detailing the holiday arrangements. According to the circular, the Kingdom's ministries and public institutions will remain closed not only on the first day of Eid but also for the next two days.

This arrangement ensures that government workers have ample time to observe and celebrate Eid al-Fitr with their families and communities. The announcement reflects the significance of Eid al-Fitr in Bahraini culture and underscores the importance of allowing citizens to partake in the joyous occasion without hindrance. It is a time for families to come together, share meals, exchange gifts, and express gratitude for the blessings received during the month of Ramadan.

Additionally, Eid al-Fitr is a time of charitable giving, where Muslims are encouraged to donate to those less fortunate, ensuring that everyone can partake in the celebrations. Across Bahrain, communities will gather in mosques and open spaces for prayers, followed by feasting and socializing. The announcement of the Eid al-Fitr holiday and its subsequent observance underscore Bahrain's commitment to honoring religious traditions and fostering a sense of unity and solidarity among its citizens.
