it is the largest annual pilgrimage in the world and is the duty of all Muslim people to go the Mecca in Saudi Arabia. It occurs between the 7th and 12th day of the 12th. Month of the Islamic Calendar. It is a celebration of the solidarity of the Muslim people and their solidarity with God (Allah in Arabic)
The Islamic Calendar has only 354 days, so every holiday shifts by 11/12 days on the Gregorian Calendar. (Thus it could not be said that Eid-Al-Fitr happens every August because it may only happen twice in August in 33 years.) The Eid occurs on the first new moon after the month of Ramadan (1st of Shawwal).
The pilgrimage occurs from the 8th to 12th of Dhu al-Hijjah, the last month of the Islamic calendar. Because the Islamic calendar is about eleven days shorter than the Gregorian year, the Gregorian date of Hajj changes each year.
No. The Sabbath is a weekly holiday that occurs from Friday at sunset until Saturday at sunset. Rosh Hashanah is a major holiday or festival, and occurs on the 1st day of the 7th month of the Jewish (lunar) calendar. If the 1st day of the 7th month is a Saturday, then Rosh Hashanah is also on the Sabbath.
Generally it occurs only during Passover, a Jewish holiday. There is also a seder for the holiday of Tu Bishvat, but this seder is rarely observed.
Muslims celebrate Ramadan by fasting all day from sunrise until sunset. This means that you wake up early in the morning, and have a kind of breakfast/lunch. Then you don't eat at all until sunset, which is when you break your fast. Breaking your fast is called Iftaar. In Iftaar, you eat some snacks such as dates and mixed fruit, but it is not specific to what you can eat during Iftaar. After maybe half an hour or so of the Iftaari time, you have dinner.

Yom Kippur occurs on the 10th of Tishrei on the Jewish calendar. The Jewish calendar is a lunar calendar in that all months begin with the new moon, but leap months are added to keep the calendar aligned with the seasons. As a result, Yom Kippur occurs between mid September and mid October in the civil calendar.
