Eid-ul-Adha 2014
Eid al-Adha is an Islamic festival to commemorate the willingness of Ibrahim (also known as Abraham) to follow Allah's (God's) command to sacrifice his son Ishmael.Just as he was to sacrifice his son, an angel stopped him and gave him a ram to sacrifice in place of his son. Muslims around the world observe this event.
