Note: 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 Tabaski (Eid al-Adha) may last anything from
2 to 10 days, depending on the region.
