EID-UI-ADHA
Eid-UI-Adha is a muslim festival that basically marks the end of Hajj or Pilgrimage to Makkah.This Eid is also known as the Eid of sacrifice,and its basically commemorates the faith of Ibrahim and devotion to Allah.Allah asked Ibrahim to sacrifice his son for Allah's sake,and even though he was a good man and loved his son very much,his devotion and faith to Allah was so strong that he did not hesitate to take this bold step and agreed to sacrifice his son.
The willingness of Ibrahim to sacrifice his son for the sake of Allah caused Allah to spare his son's life,and therefore a Lamb was sacrificed in his place.
Eid-UI-Adha is a sacred Muslim event that is celebrated every year around the world with sacrifice,Prayer and food.
Eid-UI-Adha is the second most important festival in Islam.Eid-UI- Adha takes place in the month of Hajj on the 10th Zil Hajj after all the Pilgrims to Makkah have performed the obligatory event.
Eid-UI-Adha is celebrated as a three day event in Pakistan.All the stores are closed on the day of Eid and like that in other countries Muslims gather for the prayer and listen to the sermon in the mosque.
In the United States and Canada many Muslims gather and offer the morning prayer at a mosque or in an open environment instead of eating breakfast.
The people meet each other like that in USA in the order to celebrate socialize and enjoy this historic day in Egypt.The people also offer sacrifice in the form of Goat,Lamb,Camel and Cow.The meet from the sacrifice is then distributed among the poor people in the form of charity.
And it is celebrated in the same fashion in the countries like Morocco and Bangladesh.
Why do Muslims Sacrifice an Animal on this day.
During the celebrations of Eid-UI-Adha the muslims as discussed earlier remember the trials and hardships by the Prophet Ibrahim.
