Hari Raya Puasa (Eid al-Fitr) marks the end of fasting for the month of Ramadan for Muslims in Singapore. Traditionally, Muslims in Singapore adorns their finest traditional clothing for the special occasion, pay each other visits, and bring with them lovely festive gifts such as flower arrangements, Hari Raya gift hampers, sweets, cakes and more.
This year foresaw some adjustments to the festival, with the Covid-19 pandemic necessitating a contactless system of celebration. The takbir (communal prayer calls) will be conducted by various religious teachers and heads this year and broadcasted on various media platforms. Mufti Nazirudin Mohd Nasir will be heading the takbir, followed by an address to the community along with former Mufti Fatris Bakaram and President Halimah Yacob. Dr Nazirudin will go on to lead the Hari Raya sermon that will be livestreamed across media platforms.
