The Significance of Eid ul-Adha
Eid ul-Adha, also called Bakra Eid or Qurbani Eid, is one of the two major Islamic festivals, the other being Eid al-Fitr. The day honors Prophet Ibrahim’s (AS) devotion to Allah, who replaced his son Ismail (AS) with a ram at the moment of sacrifice.
Traditions of Eid al-Adha:
Qurbani (Sacrifice): Muslims who can afford it sacrifice an animal (goat, sheep, cow, or camel) and distribute the meat among family, friends, and the needy.
Eid Prayers: Special congregational prayers are held in mosques and open grounds.
Takbeer: Chanting “Allahu Akbar” (God is Great) from Eid morning until the days of Tashreeq.
Charity (Sadaqah): Giving to the poor is highly encouraged.
Feasting & Family Gatherings: Delicious meals, sweets (like sheer khurma), and family reunions mark the celebrations.
