Eid Al-Adha

20 June, 2024

Iwan WALTERS (Greenvale) (10:03): Families in Greenvale and around the world have been celebrating Eid al-Adha this week. This three-day celebration is marked with special prayers, feasts and the sharing of food with family, friends, neighbours and the poor and needy. Eid al-Adha is one of the most important Islamic holidays, commemorating the willingness of Prophet Ibrahim(PBUH) to sacrifice his son Ishmael as an act of obedience to God’s command. Eid Mubarak to all in my community who have been celebrating this week and indeed around the world.
