There isn't one. There is a Festival of Breaking the Fast (Eid al Fitr) after the fasting month of Ramadan and the Festival of Sacrifice (Eid al Adha) at the of Hajj when an animal is slaughtered to give to the poor and needy as the Prophet Abraham did with his son Prophet Ismail. Neither of these is a festival of light.
However, other religions do have festivals of light. The Jewish festival of light is Hanukkah, the Hindu festival of light is Diwali, and the Japanese festival is Tōrō Nagashi (or the Festival of Floating Lanterns).
