Holiday Notice: Eid Al-Adha 2018
Eid Al-Adha 2018
Eid al-Adha also called the “Festival of Sacrifice” is the second of two Islamic holidays celebrated worldwide each year. It honour’s the willingness of Ibrahim (Abraham) to sacrifice his son as an act of obedience to God’s command. Before Abraham sacrificed his son, God provided a male goat to sacrifice instead. In commemoration of this, an animal is sacrificed and divided into three parts: one third of the share is given to the poor and needy; another third is given to relatives, friends and neighbours; and the remaining third is retained by the family.
