| Eid-ul-Azha is a very meaningful and memorable day, the acceptance of the prayers on this day has been indicated by the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), so we should all repent and seek forgiveness on the day of Eid. Not verbal, but practical repentance. Pray before the Lord, ask for forgiveness for your shortcomings, sins and do everything possible to please your Lord. Remember, "sacrifice" has been an integral part of all religions since the beginning of the world. It is an offering of life before Allah, which is offered by using an animal as a substitute. |

| It is known from the heavenly scriptures that the history of sacrifice began with Hazrat Adam (peace be upon him). This sacrifice is mentioned in the story of Abel and Cain in the Qur'an. It is described in the Bible as Cain brought a gift of fruits to the Lord and Abel presented his sheep, the firstlings of the goats and their fat as an offering to the Lord. The Lord accepted Abel and his offering, when That he did not accept Cain's offering. What was the method of acceptance and non-acceptance adopted at that time? There are many opinions in this regard. However, there is a clear indication in verse 183 of Surah Al-Imran that Allah, the Exalted, in order to bring the consciousness of Himself to the level of belief and faith in human nature, initially this method of acceptance of sacrifices. It was decided that fire would come from the sky and consume the offerings offered by the people. |

This incident was also described in the Holy Quran and other previous scriptures. It is said that when Hazrat Ibrahim (A.S.) prayed before Allah, Allah gave him a son in the form of Hazrat Ismail (A.S.) at the age of about 90 years. They were able to lend a hand. It can be estimated from the birth of the first child in the old age, how dear this son will be, but the true Muslim is the one who does not value anything in the world more than the pleasure and pleasure of Allah. |

Rather, he understood the command of the Lord and said, "You obey this command of Allah without hesitation, you will find me steadfast, God willing." They took him to the hill and laid him on the ground on his forehead for sacrifice. The fulfillment of God's commandments was near that the knife would have gone from his hand, a call came from Allah, "O Abraham! You made the dream come true. "Sacrifice of the son was actually a great test, on which Hazrat Ibrahim (A.S.) came down completely, he was made the Imam and leader of mankind. Then every year, as a memorial of this incident, this sacrifice is performed on the same day. The Sunnah of was established forever. This is the sacrifice, which we organize on the occasions of Hajj and Eid al-Adha. |
