Muslims across Asia celebrated Eid al-Adha, also known as the Feast of Sacrifice, on Monday, with a focus on prayers and support for those affected by the Israel-Hamas conflict in Gaza. This significant Islamic holiday commemorates Prophet Ibrahim's test of faith by sacrificing livestock and distributing the meat to the less fortunate.
Devout Muslims mark the occasion by purchasing and slaughtering animals, sharing two-thirds of the meat with those in need. Eid al-Adha coincides with the final stages of the Hajj pilgrimage in Saudi Arabia, adding to its spiritual significance.
