The UAE is getting ready for Eid Al Adha festival. This is a very big Islamic festival. In this festival, we remember Prophet Ibrahim’s faith and devotion when God asked him to sacrifice his son. In the UAE, there will be a 5-day holiday for this festival. Families and friends will gather together. The people will be wearing new and clean clothes.
What is Eid Al Adha?
Eid Al Adha is an important celebration in the Islamic religion. It is about Prophet Ibrahim. Allah told Ibrahim to sacrifice his son. Ibrahim agreed due to the fact he had a hard faith in Allah. But then Allah stopped him and said Ibrahim’s faith impressed Allah and then Allah asked Ibrahim to sacrifice an animal (goat).
How People Celebrate
For Eid Al Adha, Muslim people wake up early morning. They wear high-quality clean clothes and go to the mosque. At the mosque, they pray unique Eid prayers together. They ask Allah for blessings and guidance.
After prayers, humans hug and greet every other saying “Eid Mubarak.” Everyone is very glad and grateful on Eid day.
Eid Food Feasts
On Eid, families cook lots of tasty foods. They make special dishes like biryani rice and kebabs. The whole family eats a big delicious feast together. Making big feasts shows they are grateful to Allah.
Animal Sacrifice
An important part of Eid is sacrificing an animal like a sheep or goat. This reminds Muslims of Ibrahim’s sacrifice. The meat is divided into three parts. One part is for the family. One part is for relatives and friends. One part is given to poor people who need help.
Gifts and Fun
During the Eid holidays, little kids get new clothes and nice presents. All families go and visit other families’ houses. They meet their loved ones and spend happy times together. They eat special sweets like maqamat. There are fun fairs with rides and games. Everyone enjoys celebrating together.
