On Sunday October 5 was held in the Alamillo Park, the Eid al Adha prayer.
Eid al Adha, which could be translated as Celebration of Sacrifice is the major Muslim holiday (or Aid-al Kebir (Great Feast) that commemorates the passage recorded in both the Koran and the Bible, which shows the willingness of Ibrahim to sacrifice his son as an act of obedience to God, before God intervened to provide him with a lamb and sacrifice this animal in his place.
This festival, which takes place on the tenth day of the month of Zil-Hajj, 70 days after Eid al-Fitr, the feast marking the end of Ramadan, is incorporated into the Hajj, the great pilgrimage to Mecca, which must be made at least once and preferably during this month.
