the festival of sacrifice

• Eid al-Adha literally means "Festival of Sacrifice." It is also called Eid al-Kabeer -- "The Large Feast." It marks the culmination of the religious rituals on the hajj, the annual pilgrimage to Mecca. The four-day holiday begins on the 10th day of the Islamic month of Dhu’l-Hijja, the twelfth month of the Islamic calendar, and continues for three more days.
