Hello hiver, good afternoon from this side.
Firstly am gonna wish all Muslims Around the world EID-MUBARAK
Muslims around the world are celebrating Eid al-Adha.
Muslims around the world are celebrating Eid al-Adha.
Falling on the 10th day of the holy month of Dhu al-Hijjah, Eid is the “Festival of Sacrifice” and coincides with the Hajj pilgrimage from Medina to Mecca.
It honours Abraham’s willingness to slay his son Ishmael at Allah’s request, a supreme act of faith.
The prophet, distressed by the order, asked Ishmael what he should do and the boy advised him to follow through with the commandment. Satan tried to dissuade Abraham from slitting the boy’s throat but was driven away by the prophet pelting stones, an act recreated by pilgrims on the Hajj.
When Abraham held the blade to his son’s neck on Mount Arafat, the angel Gabriel appeared to prevent him from going through with it, saying he had already demonstrated his love for god. A goat was slaughtered in the boy’s stead.
Today, the same animal – or a sheep, cow or camel, depending on the region – is sacrificed in memory of the story.
The Qu’ran quotes the Prophet Muhammad as saying: “On the 10th of al-Hijjah, there is no better act in the view of Allah than shedding the blood. Hence you should offer it in good spirit.”
The point of the sacrifice is to kill something dear to man as an offering to the divine, as Abraham was prepared to do, serving as a reminder to followers of Islam not to become preoccupied by their possessions or lose sight of their spiritual compass.
As Allah says in the Qu’ran. “It is not their meat, nor their blood, that reaches god. It is their piety that reaches god.”
The sacrificed animal is cut into thirds: one portion is given to the impoverished, another to friends and relatives and the last retained and eaten by the family.
Carrying out this sunnah (Islamic custom or sacred duty), can be controversial in practice, however, particularly in relation to where it is undertaken.
As you already know ram, slaughtering of Ram on the day of Eid-Al-adha is a sacrifice that must be made especially when you have a family, it is compulsory for you to kill ram.
This is the slaughtering process of our ram, from slaughtering till the final making.
Our Ram is so big and huge and it has black and white color, very stuborn
The RAM has been killed here
They set fire on the Ram in order to clear it hairs
The hair has been finally clear here
The head been burnt separately.
The washing begins here in order to keep the RAM so neat and clean.
The washing is finally done here, you can see it is so clean and neat.
The cutting begins here.
The ram is finally cut in to peices.
finally the meat in pieces, i felt the Ram meat it is so fresh and neat.
and lastly the rinsing the meat to clear the dirt particle attached to it during the slaughtering.
Now it is ready to be cooked.
This meat is not to be eating alone but to be shared around to shows love to our neighborhood. I pray the Almighty Allah accept our offering.
Thank you for stopping by.
