epa08553933 Sacrificial dromedaries are put on sale at a market ahead of the Muslim festival of Eid al-Adha in Karachi, Pakistan, 18 July 2020. Eid al-Adha â' also known as the 'Festival of the Sacrifice' â' is the second and holiest of the two main Islamic holidays celebrated each year (the other one being Eid al-Fitr). It is a commemoration of the biblical story of Ibrahim (Abraham) being so obedient to God that he even showed the willingness to sacrifice his own son, 'Ishaq (Isaac). Every year, on the 10th day of the Islamic lunar month of Dhu al-Hijjah, Muslims around the world ritually slaughter a sacrificial animal and split the meat into three parts: one is reserved for the family, another for friends and relatives, and the third is given to the poor and needy.
