Happy Eid-al-Adha

This is wishing all Muslim faithfuls around the world, a happy Eid-al-Adha celebration.

Eid al-Adha started today. The holiday, which is four days long and combined with the weekend, will be five days. 

Eid-al-Adha is celebrated to commemorate the devotion of Abraham and Ishmael. This year it will be celebrated on June 16. 
 
It is known as the festival of sacrifice and is a festival of immense religious significance in Islam. On this day, Islam believers and followers remember the prophet Ibrahim's willingness to sacrifice his son when God ordered him to.

Eid-al-Adha is also known as salty Eid and is much different from Eid-ul-Fitr which is called the sweet Eid.

On this day special food like kabab, haleem, and biryani are prepared.

A major religious significance of Eid-al-Adha is it marks the completion of the annual Hajj pilgrimage. Meanwhile, Eid-ul-Fitr marks the completion of the Holy month of Ramadan. As per the Islamic lunar calendar, Eid al-Adha falls on the tenth day of Dhu al-Hijja. It lasts for the next four days. However, as per the Gregorian calendar, the dates of Eid-al-adha vary every year; it changes close to 11 days each year. Eid al-Adha is also referred to as Eid al-Azha and Eidul Azha. It is called Eid-al-Adha or Eid-al-Kabir in Arabic. Animal sacrifices are an important part of this celebration and the meat is divided into three parts: for family, for friends and for the poor.

On this special day of Eid-al-Adha, gift your family and friends with the best of everything. May the joy of Eid surround you and your family. 

The TRNC General Directorate of Police, which will be at the service of the public 24 hours a day during the holiday, warned citizens not to drink alcohol or drive fast.

Municipalities, as in every holiday, took precautions to ensure that services continue uninterruptedly this holiday.
