Eid al-Adha, also recognized as the Feast of Sacrifice, stands as a significant Islamic holiday commemorating the devotion of Abraham to sacrifice his son, Ishmael, in obedience to God. It holds a place alongside Eid al-Fitr as one of the two principal celebrations in Islam.
Observed by Muslims globally, Eid al-Adha spans three to four days. This holiday signifies the conclusion of the hajj, a pilgrimage undertaken by many Muslims to Mecca, Saudi Arabia.
