Eid-e-Milad-un-Nabi, 2020

October 30, 2020

A festival that holds great social and religious relevance for the Muslim community in India and around the world, Eid-e-Milad-un-Nabi or simply Eid-e-Milad, marks the birth anniversary of Prophet Muhammad. The festival is celebrated in Rabi� al-awwal, the third month in the Islamic calendar, by Muslims who belong to the Sufi or the Barelvi school of thought.

This year, Eid-e-Milad-un-Nabi will begin on the evening of October 29, 2020 and end on October 30, 2020. On the day, congregations are said to take place and religious leaders make speeches on the life and the teachings of the Prophet. The day is that of introspection of becoming better human beings, of walking on the path guided by the Prophet, of forgiving enemies and doing good for other human beings.

This year, because of the pandemic imposed restrictions, the celebrations may happen virtually across the country.
