While Alvida Jumma is celebrated during Ramadan like every other day, it is also a reminder to the community that the holy month of Ramadan is about to end. Many Muslims spend most of their day doing Ibadah at Jumu'atul-Widaa, seeing it as a Farewell to the most important day of the last week of the month of Ibadah (Ramadan).

This day, Muslims celebrate with reading the Quran and participating in charity work. Helping poor and needy people during these days is believed to offer Muslims much wealth and blessings.
