Eid is today and this is one of the biggest celebrations in Islam. Their are three Eids in Islam, they are: Eid al-adha, Eid al-ghadeer, Eid al-ftr. Each Eid has a special meaning to why we celebrate it. The Eid that we are celebrating today is Eid al-adha.
Eid al-adha is a 4 day religious celebration, that is celebrated for the honour of Prophet Abraham sacrificing his son Ismail as an act of submission to gods command, and his son accepted. Before this could happen, god prevented this event and switched the son with a ram to sacrifice instead.
This recitation is recited at Eid:
Allāhu akbar, Allāhu akbar الله أكبر الله أكبر lā ilāha illā Allāh لا إله إلا الله wa Allāhu akbar, Allāhu akbar والله أكبر الله أكبر wa li-illāhil-ḥamd ولله الحمد Alḥamdulillāh `alā mā hadānā, wa lahul-shukru `ala mā awlānā الحمد لله على ما هدانا و له الشكر على ما اولانا
- Allah is the Greatest, Allah is the Greatest,
- There is no deity but Allah
- and Allah is the Greatest, Allah is the Greatest
- and to Allah goes all praise, (We) sing the praises of Allah because He has shown us the Right Path. (We) gratefully thank Him because He takes care of us and looks after our interests.
