    It's basically like Muslim Christmas (although this is a real generalisation right here). It comes at the end of the Ramadan fasting period.

    Lol, you guys. Psy is right; it comes at the end of the fasting month, called Ramadan. It is the biggest celebration in Islam (and is almost like Christmas for Christians), where friends and family gather and bring foods and exchange gifts and party and just have a good time together. There's also a special prayer on this day where you thank God for all the blessings in your life. You also invite neighbours and anyone you know for the celebration, regardless of faith; it's a day of great happiness for Muslims.

    Eid Mubarak everyone; bless you all. *gives Bunny a kiss on the cheek*

    But yeah I have massive respect to Muslims for Ramadan. For those that don't know, they can't eat or even drink a glass of water during the hours of daylight (so basically they can only do that between 9PM-3AM approximately) for a whole month. It's damned impressive.

    I knew this much. Unfortunately, I have no idea why Muslims do this. Can someone enlightenment with a non-Wikipedia for Ramadan? History or how it came to be, anything of the sort?
