Eid ul-zuha, 'Feast of the
Sacrifice',
also called the "Sacrifice Feast", is the second of two Muslim
holidays celebrated worldwide each year, and considered the holier of the two.
It honors the willingness of Ibrahim (Abraham) to sacrifice his son Ismaeel, as
an act of obedience to God's command. Before he sacrificed his son God
intervened by sending his angel Jibra'il (Gabriel), who then put a ram in his
son's place. In commemoration of this, an animal is sacrificed and divided into
three parts: one third of the share is given to the poor and needy; another
third is given to relatives, friends and neighbors; and the remaining third is
retained by the family.
In the Islamic lunar calendar,
Eid ul-zuha falls on the 10th day of Dhu al-Hijjah. In the international
(Gregorian) calendar, the dates vary from year to year drifting approximately
11 days earlier each year.
Our pre primary children of
DPS-JC & DPS KIDS celebrated “Eid ul-zuha” by wearing Eid ul-zuha ethnic
dress of different styles which in fact looked the environment awesome and
conducive for the real Eid celebration. By this celebration, kids were made
known how to respect other religion and culture. They also had delicious Sewai
Sweets, spent a bit time for watching videos related with Eid. Mrs. Sabina Khan
shared the story of Eid ul zuha with Kids. They were very keen to listen the
story with lots of enthusiasm and exuberance behind Eid. At the end of the
celebration kids hugged each other wishing Eid. The best well dressed kids of
each class were awarded prizes on this auspicious occasion by their own respective
class teacher.
It was really fascinating and mesmerizing
celebration. It was another memorable moment as far as children of DPS-JC &
DPS KIDS.
