Eid Al-Adha 2025: Heartfelt Wishes And Messages To Share With Loved Ones
Eid ul-Adha 2025: Also known as Bakrid or Bakri Eid, this major Islamic festival is being celebrated in India on Saturday, June 7, 2025, depending on the moon sighting. The occasion is marked by reflection, sacrifice, charity, and joyous celebrations among Muslims worldwide. Eid ul-Adha falls on the 10th day of Dhul Hijjah, the final month of the Islamic lunar calendar. The day before, Friday, June 6, will be observed as Arafat Day (Yaum al-Arafah), considered the holiest day in Islam and closely tied to the annual Hajj pilgrimage in Mecca.
History of Eid-ul-Adha:
Eid al-Adha's history goes back to the time of Prophet Ibrahim. According to the Holy Quran, Allah commanded Prophet Ibrahim in a dream to sacrifice his son Ismail to show his devotion. Prophet Ibrahim decided to obey without hesitation. However, before he could sacrifice his son, Allah provided a lamb to sacrifice instead. This was a test from Allah, which Prophet Ibrahim passed. Since then, Muslims have performed animal sacrifices on Eid al-Adha, which is why the festival is also known as Bakra Eid.

From early morning, Muslims across Trichy and Madurai gathered to offer prayers, share meals, and help those in need — reflecting the spirit of sacrifice, gratitude, and togetherness that the festival stands for. More than 300 people assembled at the Eidgah grounds in Cantonment and Uzhavar Sandhai in Thennur to offer prayers around 7 am. Common prayers were also held at several mosques in areas such as Pallakarai and E. Pudur. Draped in a mosaic of hijabs — florals, pastels, deep tones — women stood shoulder to shoulder, offering heartfelt duas. From young girls mimicking elders to elderly women whispering quiet prayers, the scenes captured the emotional depth and spirit of Eid. As part of the festival, Qurbani, the sacred sacrifice of a goat, was performed. After the sacrifice, a portion of the meat is traditionally donated to the poor and needy. Families also invited friends and relatives to their homes to celebrate the occasion. The festival was marked by the exchange of sweets and delicacies, especially biryani, with neighbours and loved ones. "It's a tradition every year that our friend invites us for biryani at his place during the festival," said Sairam from Karumandapam. As Eid is a public holiday, Trichy hotels experienced a surge in demand for biryani, particularly through online food delivery platforms.
