Eid al-Adha, also known as Barkri/Bakra Eid in many countries, is translated as 'the festival of sacrifice' and is one of the most important festivals in the Muslim calendar.
Muslims celebrate Eid al-Adha on the last day of the Hajj. The Hajj is pilgrimage to Makkah in Saudi Arabia. It occurs every year and is the fifth pillar of Islam.
This year, Eid al-Adha is expected to begin on the evening of Friday 6 June and end on the evening of Tuesday 10 June.
We want to wish Eid Mubarak to all colleagues and students who are celebrating.
