Eid al-Fitr means "festival of the breaking of the fast". It is celebrated at the end of Ramadan, a month of fasting for many adults, as well as spiritual reflection and prayer.

Members of the Ahmadiyya Muslim gathered together at Baitul Futuh Mosque for Eid-ul-Fitr celebrations as the month of Ramadan came to an end.

The mosque in south-west London is thought to be the largest in Britain with a capacity for 13,000 worshippers.

It was completed in 2003 at a cost of £15m, entirely from donations of Ahmadi Muslims.
