The faithful assembled in large numbers at mosques and open grounds, seeking blessings for peace and prosperity.
In Delhi, thousands congregated at the historic Jama Masjid, clad in their finest attire, as they performed the traditional Namaz.
The air was imbued with a sense of reverence as worshippers embraced and exchanged greetings, reinforcing the spirit of unity and compassion that defines Eid.
Mumbai’s Juma Masjid Mahim Dargah witnessed an equally fervent turnout, with large crowds coming together in prayer.
In Patna, thousands gathered at Gandhi Maidan, filling the expansive ground with an atmosphere of devotion and gratitude.
The sound of prayers resonated as people marked the end of Ramadan with deep spiritual reflection.
In Bhopal, however, the celebrations took on a different note as some worshippers arrived at the Eidgah wearing black bands to protest the Waqf Amendment Bill.
Despite the undercurrent of discontent, the Namaz proceeded in a solemn and orderly manner, underscoring the interplay of faith and political expression.
Markets across the country were abuzz with activity as people indulged in last-minute shopping for clothes, sweets, and festive essentials.
From Hyderabad’s Charminar area to Kolkata’s Nakhoda Masjid vicinity, the vibrancy of the celebrations was evident as shoppers thronged bazaars, picking out gifts and delicacies to mark the occasion.
Eid-ul-Fitr, often referred to as the ‘Festival of Breaking the Fast,’ symbolises gratitude, charity, and renewal.
The festival is also a time for giving, with many distributing food and alms to the less fortunate, embodying the principles of generosity and compassion.
