Eid al-Adha:

 

Festival of Sacrifice: One of the two main Islamic festivals (the other is ‘Id al-Fitr), this festival falls on the 10th day of the lunar month of Zul-Hijja and is the concluding act of pilgrimage to Mecca. In commemoration of Abraham’s faith, in his willingness to sacrifice even his son Isaac as God commanded, sheep, goats and camels are offered to God, and the meat is distributed to the poor and needy. ‘Id al-Adha is observed whether or not one is on pilgrimage.

 

Eid al-Adha in 2008 is on Monday, the 8th of December.

Note that in the Muslim calendar, a holiday begins on the sunset of the previous day, so observing Muslims will celebrate Eid al-Adha on the sunset of Sunday, the 7th of December.

 

Although Eid al-Adha is always on the same day of the Islamic calendar, the date on the Gregorian calendar varies from year to year, since the Gregorian calendar is a solar calendar and the Islamic calendar is a lunar calendar. This difference means Eid al-Adha moves in the Gregorian calendar approximately 11 days every year. The date of Eid al-Adha may also vary from country to country depending on whether the moon has been sighted or not.

 

Eid Mubarak!

 

Ya Haqq!
