Eid al Adha is a very special day in my life. It
is a
religious celebration for all Muslims. On this day every Muslim who
has money can buy an animal like a sheep, cow or camel
and sacrifice it.
People do this to remember Father Abraham when he had a dream about
sacrificing his son. He believed that dream was from God, so he brought
his son and put a knife in his son's neck, but God sent a sheep to
the
place of his son. So on this day I remember how much Abraham obeyed
the
God even though he loved his son. Because he believed that God wanted
the best for him and for his son, he decided to do it. Also this
day
reminds me about the mercy and the kindness of God, and how patient
Abraham's son was because he obeyed his father without complaining.
