    Eid ul Adha

    Eid ul adha which means festival of sacrifice is celebrated in remembrance of Prophet Abraham’s
    willingness to forego his son Ishmael in reverence of his devotion to Allah. However, instead of
    sacrificing Ishmael, Prophet Abraham was allowed to sacrifice a small animal in his sons place. Eid ul
    Adha like Eid ul Fitr is commemorated with the Eid prayer. In addition, an animal is sacrificed in honor
    of Prophet Abraham’s dedication to his creator. Eid ul Adha takes place on the tenth of Dhul Hijjah and
    coincides with the ending of the rituals for Hajj or pilgrimage.
