The festivals that Muslims celebrate

‘Eid’ or ‘Id’ are words that mean ‘festival’.

There are only 2 festivals that all Muslims celebrate. These are Eid Ul Fitr and Eid Ul Adha.

But… there are other special days that Muslims can celebrate as well and we look at these too!

Three days that are important are Lailat al-Qadr, Shab-e-Baraat and Lailat al-Miraj. These are holy nights and prayers are said in the evening.
