UPDATE: New Islamic Festivals 2016
Another new year and more festivals, all religions have festivals and Islam is no different. There are two major celebrations in Islam which are the two Eids. One is straight after Ramadan, Eid ul-Fitr and the other is Eid ul-Adha which falls in the month of Hajj and lasts for three days.
There are more dates for your diaries not just the dates for Eid.

Very nice work ..keep it up
I really appriciate for this post above you shared for all of us. But performing Hajj is very costly today. Because Hajj packages and Ummrah packages are costly now a days. But I have seen that Eiman Travels are provided cheapest rate for hajj and ummrah. It will be faithful journey for all of you. I had done my journey of Ummrah recently. Then i will suggest you this travel agency. Please visit this page http://www.eimantravels.co.uk

Alhumdulillah….. very useful post by this people can come to know about the festivals.
People can travel to Makkah and Madinah for Umrah during the festivals to make festival more precious.
