Muslims celebrate the Eid'l Fitr while challenged to put the lessons of Ramadan into everyday practice

MANILA, Philippines – Filipino Muslims celebrated on Wednesday, June 5, the feast of Eid’l Fitr, which marks the end of their monthlong fasting called the Ramadan.

The challenge for Muslims, according to an imam, is to put the lessons of Ramadan into everyday practice. 

Unfortunately, said Islamic Studies professor Jamel Cayamodin, many Muslims fell into the trap of vote buying in the last elections – which fell during the month of Ramadan.
