More than 3 Million pilgrims performed the holy sacrifice of animals yesterday in Makah. The second day of Eid is being celebrated in Saudi Arabia, Gulf States, Europe, USA, India and Far Eastern countries today. Pakistan will celebrate its first day of Eid today as per the Islamic Hijri Calendar and more than 180 Million Muslims living here will be performing the holy sacrifice this morning in the memory of Prophet Abraham (PBUH).
Why do Muslims Sacrifice Animals?
Prophet Ibrahim (A.S) was being tested by God (the Merciful) for his loyalty. He was commanded by God to slaughter his son Hazrat Ismail (A.S) as obedience to the Mighty Lord. Abraham (A.S) didn't hesitate a bit and took his little boy to show the height of his Love for Allah. The moment he placed the knife on his neck, the boy was replaced with a sheep (or its kind) because what God intended was to test the inner purity of Abraham (A.S) in obeying the commandments of the great Lord and not to harm his little boy. Since then Muslims all over the world sacrifice a Halal animal to revive the spirit of what happened that day and distribute the meat amongst the needy, poor and their loved ones. All this is done just to remind Muslims that they must obey the orders of their Lord, even if they have to sacrifice their most beloved being to Him. This Eid is therefore called "Feast of Sacrifice’"
