Millions of Nigerian Muslims thronged their respective prayers grounds on Wednesday, June 28 to observe this year’s Eid-al-Adha, the second and largest of the two main festivals celebrated in Islam.
Also known as big Sallah, Eid-al-Adha commemorates Prophet Ibrahim’s (AS) devotion to Allah SWT and his readiness to sacrifice his son, Ismail. At the very point of sacrifice, Allah SWT replaced Ismail with a ram, which was to be slaughtered in place of his son.
Muslim News gathered that this command from Allah SWT was a test of Prophet Ibrahim’s willingness and commitment to obey his Lord’s command, without question.
