Eid Al-Adha Quotes 2018: Greetings, Sayings On Muslim Feast Of Sacrifice

Millions of Muslims around the world are celebrating Eid al-Adha, the holiday marking the end of the annual hajj to the Saudi Arabian city of Mecca. The day, which is also known as the Feast of Sacrifice, is marked in major Muslim nations on Tuesday and in some parts will be celebrated on Wednesday.

On this day, Muslims typically slaughter an animal like a goat, sheep or cow. One-third of the meat is supposed to be consumed by the family, one-third is to be shared with friends or neighbors and the third portion to be donated to the needy.

This day is marked to remember the time when Prophet Ibrahim was about to sacrifice his son but God spared his life, replacing him with an animal.

Here are some quotes and greetings to share with friends and family on this day.
