EID UL ADHA At the end of the Hajj (annual pilgrimage to Mecca), Muslims throughout the world celebrate the holiday of Eid al-Adha (Festival of Sacrifice) as a commemoration of Prophet Ibrahims (PBUH) willingness to sacrifice his son for God. . During the celebration of Eid al-Adha, Muslims commemorate and remember Abrahams trials, by themselves slaughtering an animal such as a sheep, camel, or goat. This action is very often misunderstood by those outside the faith. . The meat from the sacrifice of Eid al-Adha is mostly given away to others. One-third is eaten by immediate family and relatives, one-third is given away to friends, and one-third is donated to the poor. The act symbolizes our willingness to give up things that are of benefit to us or close to our hearts, in order to follow Allahs commands. . Eid Mubrak 2all My friendz, May Allah bless you all.
