As the sacred month of Ramadan 2025 nears its end, Muslims around the world prepare for Alvida Jummah, also known as Jamat-ul-Wida—one of the holiest Fridays before Eid-ul-Fitr. This special day marks an emotional farewell to Ramadan, a time of reflection, devotion, and fasting.

When is Alvida Jummah in 2025?

Alvida Jummah falls on March 28, 2025, which is the last Friday of Ramadan before the joyous Eid-ul-Fitr celebrations begin.

Significance of Jamat-ul-Wida

The term Jamat-ul-Wida comes from two Arabic words: Juma (gathering)Wida (farewell)

On this day, Muslims gather at mosques for special prayers, seeking forgiveness and expressing gratitude for the blessings of Ramadan. Many recite the Holy Quran, perform charitable acts, and pray for peace, prosperity, and well-being.

Traditions and Celebrations

• Charitable Giving: Muslims donate Sadaqah (voluntary charity) and Zakat (obligatory alms) to help those in need, ensuring everyone can celebrate Eid with dignity and joy.
• Spiritual Reflection: This day serves as a moment of gratitude and self-reflection, encouraging Muslims to carry forward the values of compassion, patience, and discipline beyond Ramadan.

Eid-ul-Fitr 2025: When Will It Be Celebrated?
