Global Differences in Eid al-Adha Celebration Dates
The timing of Eid al-Adha varies internationally because it is determined by the Islamic lunar calendar, specifically the sighting of the crescent moon for the holy month of Dhul Hijjah.
Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, and much of the Middle East and Western nations will begin their celebrations on May 27, following the day of Arafah on May 26. Conversely, central religious bodies in non-Arab regions have announced variations. In India, while a section in Jammu and Kashmmir will celebrate on May 27, the rest of the country has officially shifted its public holidays to Thursday, May 28, following the non-sighting of the moon earlier last week.

Bakrid Significance
Eid al-Adha, also known as the Feast of Sacrifice or Bakrid, is one of the two major festivals celebrated in Islam. It honours the historical willingness of Prophet Ibrahim (Abraham) to sacrifice his son as an act of obedience to God’s command. Before the sacrifice could take place, God provided a lamb to be slaughtered instead.
To commemorate this event, families who can afford to do so perform the ritual slaughter of livestock, known as Qurbani. The resulting meat is traditionally split into three equal parts: one for the immediate family, one for relatives and friends, and one for individuals experiencing poverty and hardship. The festival also marks the conclusion of the annual Hajj pilgrimage to Mecca.
