Assalamu Alaikum!

Welcome once again to the short journey of writing. This is a journey in which I am working to improve my communication skills, and this platform can prove to be a valuable resource. So the title of today's journey is "Eid-ul-Adha: A Brief View of a Muslim". Islam is a religion that not only provides the best leadership to human life economically but also guides a person in every aspect of life, like a lamp on the path. To foster feelings of love and sincerity among Muslims, the beautiful festivals of Eid are celebrated twice a year, allowing people to expand their social connections through enhanced interaction and reduce social distances.

Eid al-Adha is one of the most important festivals, and it is celebrated in the last month of the Islamic calendar, Dhul-Hijjah. When the 10th of Dhul-Hijjah arrives, on the one hand, all Muslims are busy visiting the Kaaba in Mecca and performing worship. On the other hand, Muslims all over the world are slaughtering halal animals in the path of Allah Almighty according to His commands. Let me tell you a small disclaimer here that if anyone has any problem with this block based on religion, then I apologize for it. The purpose of this post is not at all that I say anything wrong about anyone's religion or that I keep praising my religion, but rather, its purpose is to introduce you to this religious festival of mine. Then what is the purpose of this festival, and why is this festival so popular among Muslims? Muslims all over the world celebrate Eid with the greatest joy in the year, and the source of their joy is the meat obtained from sacrificing animals that is given to relatives. It is distributed among the poor.

First, if you know a little history of the question, if you are a Christian or a Jew or a Muslim, then you must know that all these religions originate from the same religion, namely the Abrahamic religions, and Hazrat Ibrahim (AS) is the person who, according to Islamic teachings, was ordered by Allah Almighty to sacrifice his son in the way of Allah. This was such an order in which Hazrat Ibrahim (AS) had to sacrifice his most precious thing, namely his son, in the way of Allah. This was a test for him from Allah Almighty. When Hazrat Ibrahim (AS) set out towards the mountains with his son Hazrat Ismail (AS), he also tied a bandage over his eyes and probably tied a bandage over his son's eyes as well and stabbed him in the neck, but after trying two or three times, the knife could not work because according to the command of Allah Almighty, Hazrat Ibrahim (AS) was changed into a ram. Prophet Abraham (peace be upon him) sacrificed this ram again by the command of Allah Almighty, and thus Muslims were commanded to sacrifice in the Holy Quran and Islamic teachings to fulfill his Sunnah.

So that was the date. You can disagree with it because you have the right to disagree. Well, what I feel is that what benefits Muslims the most in sacrifice is the increase in love for this act. Islamic teachings explain that an animal should be bought and raised before the 10th of Dhul-Hijjah, and while raising it, one should become familiar with it. Then, when a person sacrifices this animal on the 10th of Dhul-Hijjah, that is, when a Muslim sacrifices this animal on the 10th of Dhul-Hijjah, he is sacrificing one of his dearest things in the way of Allah Almighty. This means that he is setting a great example of gratitude in the way of Allah Almighty. According to my personal point of view, this is a very humane act. And the study of human psychology makes it clear that if a person keeps losing some of their beloved things over time, this thing strengthens the ability to think and understand in a person, as well as helps in fighting difficulties, enduring suffering, and understanding the pain of others in society. And not only does a person get help from this process, but they also get a strong immune system that helps them fight against difficulties.
