An important tradition of the day is sacrificing a goat in the name of God. After that extravagant meals are prepared to be shared with fellow Muslims and non-Muslim friends. Muslims wake up early in the morning to offer their prayers before sunrise. Mosques are decorated with bright lights and other decorations. This is a celebration of sharing and caring.
Fellow Muslims celebrate this day with joy and humility. This festival is a major festival for Muslims around the world. This special day is celebrated to commemorate the sacrifice of Ishamel by Abraham.
