'Eid is the best time of year - but UK Muslims have to find their own way of celebrating'

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).
