~+EID MUBARAK+~

Hello everyone and Eid Mubarak!

Tomorrow (in my timezone) is Eid al-Adha! There are 2 Eids that Muslims celebrate every year: Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha.
Both are based on the Islamic calendar. Which is why the dates for both these Eids change annually.

The current month is Dhul-Hijjah, and this is the time when people perform Hajj (Pilgrimage) and when Eid al-Adha takes place.

The reason why we celebrate this day is because we believe that the Prophet Ibrahim (Abraham) had a dream in which God tells him to sacrifice his son Ismail (Ishmael) as a sign of obedience and devotion. He then goes to a mountain to sacrifice his son, who agrees that his father should do this, and God replaces Ismail with an animal before he is harmed.

Therefore during this time Muslims sacrifice an animal and give a portion to the poor and needy people as well as celebrate the day by performing the Eid prayer and spending time with loved ones.

So Eid Mubarak to those celebrating and have fun :D
