Eid al-Adha, also known as the ‘festival of sacrifice’ or Greater Eid or Eid Qurban or Qurban Bayarami, is celebrated on the 10th day of Dhu al-Hijjah, the 12th month of the Islamic or lunar calendar.
This year, the crescent moon for the Zul Hijjah was sighted on July 11, as per Jamiat Ulama-i-Hind. This means that Bakrid will be celebrated on July 21 in other countries. However, in Saudi Arabia, it will be celebrated a day earlier on July 20, 2021.
Here is wishing all our Muslim readers a Happy Eid Mubarak celebration! From all of us at TM team
