Eid Al-Fitr, literally meaning reoccuring happiness of the original nature, is a 3 day holiday celebrated by Muslims after the month of Ramadan. During this 3 day holiday, Muslims will traditionally exchange gifts, visit family and friends and enjoy delicious meals and desserts.
Eid Mubarak is a common greeting exchanged throughout the Muslim world, which means blessed Eid.
The month that follows the month of Ramadan is called Shawwal, the 10th month on the Islamic lunar calendar.
