Eid-ul-Fitr may be a Muslim festival, but Muslims, like other communities, live in a society, in a neighbourhood. This makes Eid-ul-Fitr automatically a social festival. Therefore, Muslims meet not only with their religious brothers, but also with neighbours of other denominations and with their colleagues at work or in business. It is this social aspect of Eid-ulFitr that has led to the practice of Eid Milan. Muslims observe Eid Milan (get together on Eid day) by inviting their neighbours and others to spend some time with them. In this sense Eid-ul-Fitr promotes social harmony.
