A cluster of stores selling fragrances, colourful "Kandahari hats" and Taliban leadership-branded turbans have opened in downtown Kabul since the group returned to power.

Several of the stores were opened by members of the Taliban themselves.

The timing of Eid al-Fitr is determined by the sighting of the crescent moon, in accordance with the Muslim lunar calendar.

The holiday is normally celebrated with family gatherings.
