Happy Eid! On this joyous occasion, take a moment and wish your loved ones with these lovely WhatsApp, SMS, Facebook greetings.
Considered one of the holiest festivals in Islam, the Eid al-Adha marks the end of Hajj – the annual pilgrimage undertaken by devout Muslims to Mecca in Saudi Arabia. This year, the festival was expected to fall on September 11 – which is the anniversary of the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center and Pentagon back 2001.
But, according to recent reports, the festival dates – which are dictated by the sighting of the moon and the lunar calendar – have fallen on September 12 and 13. Countries in the Western Hemisphere will celebrate it on Monday, while in India, Pakistan, Bangladesh and other Asian countries, Tuesday has been fixed as the day for celebrating Greater Eid.
Eid al-Adha literally translates to ‘festival of the sacrifice’, referring to the story of Abraham, or Ibrahim as he’s also known, who was ready to sacrifice the life of his son at the command of Allah. God, after testing Abraham’s devotion, switched the object of sacrifice to a sheep instead of his son. This is the reason why this day is also called Bakra Eid.
Muslims usually symbollically sacrifice goats, lambs and other animals in the name of Allah and as a respect to Abraham’s willingness to make the ultimate sacrifice. The meat from the sacrificed animal is considered pious and distributed among friends and family.
Eid al-Adha is vastly different from Eid al-Fitr, which marks the end of the holy month of Ramadan, when Muslims fast as a devotion to Allah.
On this auspicious occasion, here are some wishes and greetings to share with your loved ones to wish them good fortune and a Happy Eid.
