The Significance of Eid-ul-Adha

Eid-ul-Adha commemorates the profound act of faith by Prophet Ibrahim (Abraham), who was willing to sacrifice his son in obedience to Allah's command. At the last moment, Allah provided a ram to be sacrificed instead. This festival teaches us about the importance of faith, sacrifice, and compassion. It’s a time to express gratitude for our blessings and to extend help to those in need.

Celebrating Eid-ul-Adha

Around the world, Eid-ul-Adha is celebrated with great enthusiasm. Families gather for special prayers, enjoy festive meals, and exchange gifts. The day begins with a special prayer at the mosque, followed by the ritual sacrifice of an animal. The meat from this sacrifice is then distributed into three parts: one for the family, one for friends and relatives, and one for the poor and needy. This practice embodies the spirit of sharing and community.
