When is Eid al-Adha 2023 predicted to start in the UK and why do Muslims celebrate it

 


Muslims around the world are preparing to celebrate Eid-ul-Adha - one of the biggest religious festivals in the Islamic religion. It is the second Eid in the Islamic calendar, and this year it is predicted to start on the evening of Wednesday, June 28 in the UK and last for three days.

Eid ul-Adha falls on the tenth day of the last month of the Islamic lunar calendar. The day is dependent on the valid sighting of the moon in Saudi Arabia after the completion of the annual holy pilgrimage of Hajj – so the date varies every year.

Eid ul-Adha translates to 'Feast of the Sacrifice' and highlights the story of Prophet Ibrahim (also known as Abraham in other religions) in the Quran. Ibrahim was ready to sacrifice his son Ismail under the instruction of God.

Muslims believe that because of Ibrahim's obedience, God immediately intervened and brought a ram in place of his son. Even today, Muslims slaughter an animal to honor Ibrahim's sacrifice and distribute its meat to the needy.

Traditionally, the day is celebrated with loved ones, and gifts are shared. This year, the festival of Eid will be celebrated at Victoria Park on Wednesday, June 28, with prayers starting at 9am.

Organizers have asked attendees to bring their own mats that day. There will be many different food stalls and rides for residents to enjoy, and there will also be special congregational prayers at several local mosques across the city.
