Tens of thousands of Muslims in every quadrant of Calgary marked the start of Eid al-Adha on Sunday.
Eid al-Adha is the second of two Islamic holidays celebrated annually. The other, Eid al-Fitr, comes at the end of the holy month of Ramadan where Muslims fast.
This Eid marks the end of the Hajj, a pilgrimage to Mecca, which is one of the pillars of Islam and a requirement for Muslims to make at least once in their life, for those that are physically able.
- Maswood Ahmed, a member of the Muslim Council of Britain, says that 'Eid is a time of celebration after accomplishing one of the most important religious duties: fasting during the month of Ramadan'.
- On this Eid Day I sit down alone and lament the blindness and the perversion of our hearts that this Shia-Sunni divide has caused. I think of the plight of the Muslim lands - Palestine, Kashmir, Chechnya, Mindanao, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iraq, Somalia and Yemen, ravaged by internal strife and humiliated by foreign occupation and domination, the.
It's known as the festival of the sacrifice and commemorates the willingness of the prophet Ibrahim to sacrifice his son. In the end, a lamb is sacrificed instead of the boy. Many families have an animal slaughtered and share the meat in thirds with friends, family and the poor.

Thousands braved the rain to gather in huge outdoor tents at the Akram Joma Islamic Centre on Sunday morning for prayers, joined by Alberta Premier Jason Kenney.
'We learn from this particular day that in order for us to unite, in order for us to make our world a better place we have a responsibility,' said Imam Fayaz Tilly with the Muslim Council of Calgary.
'Part of that responsibility is educating ourselves, sacrificing our time and our wealth to ensure we leave this world in a better place,' said Tilly.
Premier Kenney spoke to the crowd about religious freedom and tolerance in Alberta, making reference to Alberta being home to several Muslim firsts.
'It is in this province that the first Muslim was elected to a Canadian legislature and appointed to a Canadian cabinet,' said Kenney.

'It is in this province that the first Muslim was elected to the parliament of Canada, it is in this province that the first Mosque in Canada was constructed and so it is in this province that we will continue to be leaders in the defence of religious freedom, demonstrating that Islam and Muslim people have a central place in our society,' Kenney said.
The event was one of many organized by the Muslim Council of Calgary in all corners of the city.
'We have this event all across the city and all across the world,' said Mohammad Hajar, chair of the MCC.
'We have it in the southeast, northeast, southwest and the northwest, the same type of gathering and same ceremony. We put in lots of effort,' said Hajar.
As well as prayers, Eid al-Adha involves the sharing of food and gifts among family and friends.
Eid runs for the next three days.
1. It is Sunnah to dress in the best clothes on Eid. It was narrated that Ibn Umar used to do that along with other Companions of the Prophet [pbuh] . [Fath al-Baaree]
2. It is a must (Waajib) to pray Eid Prayer. The Prophet [pbuh] and his Companions never ceased doing it, and they even gathered the people for it including women who were having their menses, children and the elderly. [Bukhari and Muslim]
3. It is Sunnah to say Takbeer loudly when leaving our homes to go to Eid Prayer. The Prophet [pbuh] used to say this until he finished the Prayer. [Silsilat Al-ahadeeth As-Sahiha]
4. The Sunnah for Eid Prayers is to pray in the Musallah (that is in an uncovered place) and not in the Masjid. The Prophet [pbuh] never prayed Eid Prayer in the Masjid. Abu Sa’eed reported: “The Prophet used to go on the day of Eid -al-Fitr and Eid-al-Adhaa to the Musallah, and the first thing he did was to pray.” [Bukhaari and Muslim]
5. Neither Adhaan nor Iqaamah are pronounced for Eid Prayer. [Muslim]

6. Ibn Abbaas reported: “The Prophet [pbuh] prayed two Rakaahs for the Eid prayer and did not pray before it or after it.” [Bukhaari]
7. Jabir reported: “The Prophet [pbuh] used to come back from Eid-al-Fitr on a path other than the one used in going to it.” [Bukhaari]
8. It is permitted to listen to songs (without musical instruments) on Eid day especially for children. [Bukhaari and Muslim]
What NOT to do on Eid Day
1. To shave the beards especially for Eid. The Prophet [pbuh] has ordered us not to shave our beards; so it is a shame that, on this great day of demonstrating our differences in ceremonies to those of the Mushriks, that some Muslim shaves his beard so that he looks “clean” like the Mushriks.
2. To imitate the Mushriks in their practices and dress, and to shake hands with women. The Prophet [pbuh] said: “It is better that a man is hit with needle on his head than to touch a woman who is not lawful for him.” [Silsilat al-Ahadeeth as-Sahiha]
3. To listen to music on Eid. The Prophet [pbuh] said: “There will be some in my nation who will regard adultery, men dressing in silk, drinking intoxicants (al-Khamr), and musical instruments to be lawful.” [Bukhaari, Abu Dawood and Bayhaqee]
4. For women not to wear Hijaab. To do so is to celebrate Eid while committing a major sin.
5. To visit the graveyard especially on Eid. It is permitted to visit the graveyard all year long so we should not make a special case out of it on Eid.
6. To waste money and being extravagant with food instead of giving them to the poor.
