Today is Bakrid. Bakrid is also called Eid-ul-Azha, which means the Eid of sacrifice. It is the second major festival of Islam after Eid-ul-Fitr. Bakrid is celebrated 70 days after the end of the month of Ramadan. This festival is a symbol of sacrifice, sacrifice, penance and strong intention. Goat is sacrificed on this day.
Why is the goat sacrificed?
Maulana Qutubuddin Rizvi told that Hazrat Ibrahim was a servant of God. It is said that Allah once asked Prophet Ibrahim to sacrifice the most beloved thing to prove his love and faith. After this Prophet Ibrahim decided to sacrifice his only son. Hazrat Ibrahim felt that while sacrificing his son, his love for him might not become a problem, so he blindfolded himself. After this, when Hazrat Ibrahim put a knife on the neck of his son Ismail, by the order of Allah, a heavenly dumba (an animal) came in place of his son Hazrat Ismail. When Ibrahim removed the blindfold, he found his son standing alive. Allah liked this belief and action of Hazrat Ibrahim so much that it made it obligatory for every Sahib (whose economic condition is to buy a goat or any other animal and sacrifice it) to sacrifice it. Symbolizes sacrifice, renunciation, sacrifice, penance and strong will. Maulana Qutubuddin said that everyone should be included in the happiness of the festival and there should be no disturbance in the happiness of others.
Asif Iqbal has come to his home to celebrate the festival after six years
Asif Iqbal, a resident of Sector 2, has returned home from Riyadh after six years to celebrate Bakrid with his family. He said that the joy of celebrating the festival with the family at home is something else. This happiness cannot be found there. He said that all the preparations regarding the festival have been completed. After offering prayers on Thursday, prayers will be offered for everyone’s well-being. He said that the fragrance that is present in the litigants of our country and our region will not be found anywhere.
