Eid al-Fitr celebrations to mark the end of the Muslim holy month of Ramadan are taking place across the world (see story on Page A2). It was evident in Kennedy Park in Lewiston on Thursday as Muslims painted with henna, including Arbai Abdi, 15, of Lewiston, were in abundance. Traditionally, the holy month of fasting ends with the sighting of the new moon. It culminates in scenes of merriment and thanksgiving, with families and friends gathering to exchange gifts, share food and decorate their homes.
