Eid al-Adha (Arabic:
عيد الأضحى ‘Īd al-’Aḍḥá, IPA: [ʕiːd al ʔadˁˈħaː],
"festival
of sacrifice"),
also called Feast of the Sacrifice, the Major Festival,[1]
the Greater Eid and Id-ul-Zuha,[2] is an
important 4-day religious holiday celebrated by Muslims worldwide
to honor the willingness of the prophet ʾIbrāhīm
(Abraham) to sacrifice his young firstborn son Ismā'īl (Ishmael)a as an act
of submission to God, and his son's acceptance of the sacrifice before
God intervened to provide Abraham with a ram to sacrifice
instead.[3]
Eid al-Adha is the latter of the two Eid
holidays celebrated by Sunni and Shia Muslims,
the former holiday being Eid al-Fitr. The basis for the Eid al-Adha comes from
the 196th verse of the 2nd sura of the Quran.[4] The
word "Eid" appears once in the 5th sura
of the Quran, with the meaning "solemn festival".[5] The 3
days and 2 nights of Eid al-Adha are celebrated annually on the 10th, 11th and
12th day Dhu al-Hijjah (ذو الحجة), the twelfth and last
month of the lunar Islamic calendar.[6] In
the international Gregorian calendar, the dates vary from year to
year, drifting approximately 11 days earlier each year.
