On the morning of Eid, Muslims typically wake up early, eat a small breakfast, and go to pray either outside or at a mosque. A sermon is given, followed by a prayer, known as Salat al-Eid, that may only be recited with others.
In the afternoon, Muslims eat a large meal, attend processions and celebrations, and spend time with their friends and family. Gift giving is common during Eid. The celebrations are meant to give thanks to Allah and to ask for sins to be forgiven.
