Eid festival tomorrow

News

Muslims in Sri Lanka will celebrate the Eid-Ul-Fitr (Ramazan) festival tomorrow, the Colombo Grand Mosque announced last night

Grand Mosque General Secretary Nazushan Hassen said that since the new moon was not sighted last night in any part of the country, the mosque committee had decided to declare today as a day of fasting and tomorrow as the festival.

Muslims in Saudi Arabia, Europe, North America and some parts of South East Asia celebrate the festival today, while Libya celebrated it yesterday.
