Facts about Eid al-Adha Mubarak. Eid al-Adha, (Arabic: Festival of Sacrifice), also called ʿĪd al-Qurbān . the second of two great Muslim festivals, the other being Eid Al-Fitr.
Eid al-Adha marks the culmination of the hajj(pilgrimage) rites at Minā, Saudi Arabia, near Mecca, but is celebrated by Muslims throughout the world.
It begins on the 10th of Dhū al-Ḥijjah, the last month of the Islamic calendar, and continues for an additional three days. During the festival, families that can afford to sacrifice a ritually acceptable animal (sheep, goat, camel, or cow) do so and then divide the flesh equally among themselves, the poor, and friends. Eid al-Adha is also a time for visiting with friends and family and for exchanging gifts.
This festival commemorates the ransom with a ram of the biblical patriarch Ibrāhīm’s son Ismāʿīl—rather than Isaac, as in Judeo-Christian tradition.
