What is the festival called by the Hui people for the New Year?

The Hui people's New Year is called Eid al-Fitr. This is the biggest festival of the Hui people every year. Other ethnic groups call it the Hui New Year. Eid al-Fitr will last for three days, and the first day will be lively from dawn. Moreover, every household should get up early to clean the toilets inside and outside the hospital, giving people a clean, comfortable and pleasant feeling.

All adult Hui people should take a bath by themselves. Men, women and children all put on their favorite new clothes, and the children all washed their faces and combed their hair. The place where Muslims gather and move is the mosque. The maintenance before the festival is also cleaned up during the festival. In some places, huge slogans and colored lights are hung to celebrate Eid al-Fitr.

This month, the life of Hui people is much better than usual. Generally, there are nutritious foods such as white rice, white flour, mutton, camellia oleifera, sugar and tea. The most important festival of the Hui nationality is Eid al-Fitr, but the Spring Festival is still a traditional festival that the Hui nationality attaches great importance to as a part of the Chinese nation.
