ARMM Gov. Datu Zaldy Uy Ampatuan has declared October 23, 2006 as a special non-working holiday in the entire autonomous region in meaningful observance of the Eidl Fitr or the Feast of Fast-Breaking.
Eidl Fitr, one of the two major Islamic holidays (Eid), marks the end of fasting in the holy month of Ramadan. It is signaled with the sighting of the new moon.
“The regional government joins the entire Muslim world in the celebration of this blessed day,” said Gov. Ampatuan.
On this day, Prophet Mohammad (Peace Be Upon Him) enjoin Muslims to take part in a communal prayer in the early morning in an open space in their community. (BPI-ARMM)
