Muslims around the world are celebrating Eid al-Fitr on Friday, the festival that marks the end of the islamic holy month of Ramadan and the first day of the new month of Shawwal. If you’re taking part we’d love to hear from you.

Eid-al-Fitr begins after the first sighting of the new moon with Muslims traditionally gathering to pray, give to charity and break their fast with family and friends. In many countries it is also a public holiday and schools and government offices close.

Are you celebrating Eid? If so, tell us how. Where are you spending Eid-al-Fitr and with who? Are you doing anything different this year? Share your photos, videos and stories and we will feature the most interesting on the site.
