Eid ul Adha, often known as the “Competition of Sacrifice,” is a big non secular vacation celebrated by Muslims worldwide. It marks the top of the annual Hajj pilgrimage to Mecca and commemorates the willingness of the Prophet Ibrahim (Abraham) to sacrifice his son Ismail (Ishmael) as an act of obedience to God.
The precise date of Eid ul Adha varies annually, as it’s decided by the Islamic lunar calendar. In 2025, Eid ul Adha is anticipated to start on Wednesday, June 18th, and finish on Thursday, June nineteenth. The vacation is usually celebrated over three days, with the principle day of festivities falling on the second day.
