Imagine the most wonderful time of the year. Now double that to twice a year and you’ll have Eid.
Muslims celebrate Eid-al-Adha at the end of the first ten days of Dhul-Hijjah, the holiest days in the Islamic calendar. (This Eid is not to be confused with the earlier Eid-ul-Fitr, marking the end of Ramadan.)
This festival celebrates the achievement of Muslims who have completed Hajj (pilgrimage to the holy site Makkah).
