Eid Al-Adha Quotes 2021: Messages, Greetings To Mark Muslim Feast Of Sacrifice
Eid al-Adha marks the end of the Islamic pilgrimage to Mecca, which is called the Hajj. During this occasion, Muslims across the globe remember the sacrifice of Prophet Ibrahim.
This year, the festival, which is also known as the “Feast of Sacrifice,” will start from the evening of July 19 and end July 20 in the U.S. Countries like India will observe the festival from July 20 to July 21.
On this day, Muslims typically slaughter an animal like a goat, sheep or cow, depending on their financial capacity. 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.
Following the sacrifice, Muslims greet their friends and family using the most common term, “Eid Mubarak,” or “Blessed Eid.” Other phrases such as “Kul ’am wa inta bekhair,” or “May every year see you in good health,” and “Eid Saeed,” or “Happy Eid,” are also used.
