10.Shawwal

Shawwal is the 10th month in the Islamic Calendar, a month after the Ramadan and the 1st Shawwal is the Day of EID al-Fitr for Muslims.

It means Uplift/breakage, as before Islam, Arabs trusted that any marriage held in Shawwal would dependably end up being unsuccessful. Taken from “shala” which signifies “when the female camel gets pregnant”. At the point when this name was given, the female camels used to get pregnant amid this time.

The primary day of Shawwāl is Eid al-Fitr. A few Muslims watch six days of fasting amid Shawwāl starting the day after Eid-ul-Fitr since fasting is restricted on this day. These six days of fasting together with the Ramadan fasts are equal to fasting lasting through the year. The thinking behind this custom is that a decent deed in Islam is compensated 10 times, thus fasting 30 days amid Ramadan and 6 days amid Shawwāl is proportional to fasting the entire year as far as the reward.
