Children parade on the streets as Muslims celebrate Eid Al-Fitr. The festival marks the end of Ramadan, during which Muslims in countries around the world spend time with family, offer gifts and often give to charity.
The festival, which translates to "festival of breaking the fast," celebrates the end of Ramadan and is traditionally celebrated for three days.
Ramadan is one of the five pillars of Islam and marks the time when Muslims believe the Qu'ran was revealed to mankind through the Prophet Muhammad, and they therefore abstain from food, drink, and sexual activity - one of the highest forms of worship.
Eid al-Fitr is an opportunity for Muslims to gather with friends and family to feast, pray, and celebrate together.
We've gathered images from around the world to see how different countries are celebrating the religion's holiest week:
