Eid al-Adha

What is Eid al-Adha?

A religious festival celebrated by Muslims worldwide in commemoration of the willingness of
Ibrahim (Abraham) to sacrifice his son as an act of obedience to God. As Ibrahim was about
to sacrifice his son, God intervened and instead provided a lamb as the sacrifice.

Its significance?

“The celebration of Eid-Ul-Adha is in commemoration of the command give by Allah to Prophet
Abraham to sacrifice his first born son Ishmael to Him. The fulfillment of this noble command of
Allah by Abraham signifies his faith in Allah….”

May Allah show us guidance to His path
