Eid al-Fitr (Arabic: عيد الفطر, romanized: ʿĪd al-Fiṭr, lit. 'Festival of Breaking the Fast') is the first of the two main festivals in Islam, the other being Eid al-Adha. It falls on the first day of Shawwal, the tenth month of the Islamic calendar. Eid al-Fitr is celebrated by Muslims worldwide because it marks the end of the month-long dawn-to-dusk fasting (sawm) of Ramadan. The holiday is known under various other names in different languages and countries around the world.

The Gulf country announced the official date after religious committees conducted a moon sighting on Saturday.

According to moon sighting results, the committee sighted the crescent for the month of Shawaal, the tenth month in the Islamic calendar.

 Many other countries confirmed Sunday as Eid Al Fitr. But some countries such as Iran announced Monday as Eid Al Fitr.
