The fasting month of Ramadan culminates in Eid-ul-Fitr, which is celebrated with feasting, giving and taking of gifts and wearing new clothes. 


During this festival, younger ones from the Muslim community visit their elderly ones for three days and receive blessings. It is customary to give sevai, dates, and other sweet delicacies to the relatives who come for blessings.
