Happy Eid al-Fitr
Eid ul-Adha, also known as Bakra Eid, Bakrid, Eid al-Adha, Eid Qurban, or Qurban Bayarami, is celebrated to honour Prophet Ibrahim's unwavering devotion to Allah. This festival occurs in Zul Hijjah, the 12th month of the Islamic lunar calendar, which is considered one of the holiest months for Muslims. On this occasion, Muslims gather together and celebrate the festival with grandeur and enthusiasm.
Eid-ul-Adha 2024 Date:

History of Eid-ul-Adha:
Eid al-Adha's history goes back to the time of Prophet Ibrahim. According to the Holy Quran, Allah commanded Prophet Ibrahim in a dream to sacrifice his son Ismail to show his devotion. Prophet Ibrahim decided to obey without hesitation. However, before he could sacrifice his son, Allah provided a lamb to sacrifice instead. This was a test from Allah, which Prophet Ibrahim passed. Since then, Muslims have performed animal sacrifices on Eid al-Adha, which is why the festival is also known as Bakra Eid.
Wishes:
"On the joyful day of Eid-ul-Adha, may Allah fill your life with happiness, peace, and prosperity. May Allah fill your heart with love, your soul with spirituality, and your mind with wisdom. Eid Mubarak!"
