A Story of Abrahamic Sacrifice

The Festival of Sacrifice (Eid al-Adha) is one of the two most important

celebrations in the Islamic tradition. About two months

following the end of Ramadan fasting and festivity (Eid al-Fitr),

Muslims around the world join in prayer and feasting again for Eid

al-Adha. Those who can afford distribute meat of sacrificial animals

to the poor and neighbors during this eid which also marks one of

the biggest annual assemblies of the world: the Hajj – the pilgrimage.
