Eid is a festival of Muslims that is celebrated all over the world. Eid-ul-Adha is also known as the festival of sacrifice and sacrifice feast. Eid- ul- Adha is celebrated on the tenth day of Dhuj Hijja, the Islamic month according to the lunar Islamic calendar. Eid- ul- Adha accurs approximately seventy days after the end of Ramadan month. The festival of Eid- ul- Adha is celebrated in the remembrance of prophet Ibrahim’s readiness to forfeit Ishmael, his son for god. The story about this festival tells, how Ibrahim was ready to kill his son and remained true to God. The story tells, how Allah told Ibrahim, to lift up the foundation of Kaaba that was a holy place in Mecca.God also asked Ibrahim to sacrifice his son, in a dream. Ibrahim along with his son started moving towards Mina for the sacrifice. Some of the daemons tried to direct Ibrahim away from his way but Ibrahim was true to god and as he was just set to kill his son, God stopped him and gave him a sheep to sacrifice instead of sacrificing his son. This festival is thereby said to be a festival of sacrifice. Some people celebrate Eid- ul- Adha because it ends the pilgrimage or Hajj for those Muslims who make a trip to Mecca each year. Just like Eid- ul- Fitr, Eid- ul - Adha also commences with a small prayer followed by Khutba. The delivery of this Khutba is done from Mount Arafat in Mecca. It is assumed that Eid- ul- Adha should last for three days but some of the Islamic traditions think that Eid- ul- Fitr last for three days and Eid- ul- Adha last for four days.
