The Muslim world is preparing to celebrate one of its most important religious holidays, Eid al-Adha, scheduled for Sunday June 16, 2024 according to astronomical calculations.
This festival, also known as the “Feast of Sacrifice”, is celebrated on the tenth day of the month of Dhul-Hijjah of the Islamic calendar.
The importance of the date of Eid al-Adha
Eid al-Adha follows the day of Arafat, which is the culmination of the pilgrimage to Mecca, one of the five pillars of Islam. Arafat Day will take place on Saturday, June 15, where pilgrims stand on Mount Arafat to pray and meditate.
Eid festivities begin the next day, marking Abraham's sacrifice, an act of faith and obedience to God.
Calendar of celebrations
The month of Dhul-Hijjah is scheduled to begin on June 7, with the crescent moon sighting scheduled for the evening of June 6, according to the Umm al-Qura calendar used in Saudi Arabia.
Religious authorities in Egypt and Turkey have also confirmed this date, linking astronomical events to religious practices.
Eid holidaysThe Eid al-Adha holiday usually lasts between three and four days, starting on June 16 and continuing until June 19.
In many Muslim countries, festivities can extend for up to a full week, allowing communities to come together, share meals and visit family.
It should be remembered that the observation of the lunar crescent remains a crucial element in confirming the start of the month of Dhul-Hijjah.
