Muslims around the world celebrate Eid al-Adha

Millions of Muslims across the world are celebrating the Eid al-Adha, one of the two most important festivals in the Muslim calendar. The holiday, also known as the Feast of the Sacrifice, is based on praying and animal sacrifice, as it symbolizes Prophet Ibrahim's willingness to sacrifice his son as a sign of devotion to Allah. On Monday, millions of Muslims are marking the beginning of the four-day Feast of the Sacrifice, which for many starts with a congregational prayer in a mosque.
