Note: (a)
Holidays that fall on a Sunday are often observed on the following
day. (b) Muslim festivals are timed according to local sightings of
various phases of the moon and the dates given above are
approximations. During the lunar month of Ramadan that precedes Eid
al-Fitr, Muslims fast during the day and feast at night and normal
business patterns may be interrupted. Some disruption may continue
into Eid al-Fitr itself. Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha may last
anything from 2 to 10 days, depending on the region.
