The Fiji Muslim League is urging families to strictly monitor maximum gathering restrictions in their homes as people will be visiting their friends and families during Eid.

The League says people must take note that congregating in groups always has the risk of exceeding 20 people and has the potential of violating the social distancing rules.

They are also strongly recommending members to offer Eid prayers with families at homes as places of worship remain closed as per the government directive.

Meanwhile, League President Haji Hafizud Dean Khan says all Muslims are advised to break their fast at home with their household family members only.

Meanwhile, Eid is expected to be celebrated this weekend.
