Muslims in Bulgaria and around the world are celebrating today Ramazan Bayram. Muslims traditionally gather in mosques for collective prayer. On the holiday, the house and yard are cleaned and special dishes are prepared. Giving alms is considered an obligatory ritual, and the younger ones ask for forgiveness from the older ones.
In an official address, the Grand Mufti of Bulgaria Mustafa Hadzhi noted that Bayram brings people together, regardless of religious or ethnic differences, and the times we live in demand that we be more united and more generous. In these days, praying to the Most High for those suffering around the world and to save our homeland from disasters is everyone's duty, says the chief mufti.
