IMAMS from across Bradford have urged the district’s Muslim community to “not get complacent” and to be mindful of Covid-19 rules ahead of Eid celebrations this week.
With lockdown restrictions easing - and Eid being observed this week, marking the end of Ramadan - imams have said that, although this is “a time for celebration and happiness”, people should still “protect themselves, each other and wider society” by sticking to the rules.
When Eid is celebrated depends on a sighting of the moon, with this year’s festival expected to fall on either Thursday or Friday, according to some sources.
