Eid-ul-Azha is the second of two religious festivals celebrated by Muslims worldwide each year.
It honours the willingness of Prophet Abraham (Ibrahim) to sacrifice his promised son, Ishmael, as an act of submission to Allah’s command, before God intervenes through his angel Jibra'il and informs him that his sacrifice has already been accepted.
