This religious festival marks the end of the holy month of Ramadan and the^1st day of the month of Shawwal. It is one of the most important celebrations in the Muslim calendar, bringing families together across the Kingdom. On this special day, morning prayers are held and then it's time to gather around a big meal, ending with pastries. It is not, however, comparable in scale to its elder sister, the feast of Aïd El-Kébir.

It's the tenth day of the year, and takes us back to the year 622, when Mohammed and his followers gathered at the oasis of Yathrid - today known as Medina. One of the three tribes living in the oasis was Jewish, and on this day they celebrated Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement, when the Israelites observe a day of fasting and rest to atone for the sins they had committed during the year. The prophet advised his followers to adopt this day of fasting. Two years later, when Ramadan was instituted, Ashura became recommended but not obligatory. Today, it's a festival in honor of the underprivileged, and an opportunity to give them zakat, the alms provided for by the Koran for all good Muslims. It's also a festival for children.
