The President of the Muslim Community of Albania, Bujar Spahiu, in a post on social networks, has congratulated all Muslim believers on the holiday of Kurban Bayram. 

"From the bottom of my heart, I wish you a happy Eid al-Adha! May your families find happiness, may the great God give us prosperity and goodness for our nation, may God give peace to all believers around the world. Happy!", says Spahiu. 

Thousands of believers gathered this morning in the main squares for the prayer of Kurban Bayram.

Eid al-Adha is one of two Islamic holidays celebrated by Muslims around the world, the other being Eid al-Fitr. The holiday, according to Islamic tradition, honors Ibrahim's willingness to sacrifice his son as an act of submission to God's command, before God intervenes, through his angel Gabriel, to inform Ibrahim that his sacrifice has already been accepted.

The meat from the sacrificed animal is divided into three parts, the family keeps one part, the rest is given to relatives, friends and neighbors; while the remainder is distributed to the poor and needy.

Otherwise, it is also known as the Eid of the pilgrims, because within the days of this Eid, the ritual pilgrimage to Mecca is also performed.

In the Hijri calendar, Eid al-Adha falls on the 10th day of Dhul-Hijjah and lasts for four days. In the Gregorian calendar, the date varies from year to year, moving approximately 11 days earlier each year./ CNA
