Congregational prayers were held in mosques and open grounds across the city early in the morning. A large number of men, women, and children participated in the prayers at the ground near Uzhavar Sandhai in Tennur, besides other venues. Sales of sacrificial livestock remained brisk despite the rise in prices this year. The qurbani (sacrifice) ritual took place after the Id prayer, which signifies the end of the Haj pilgrimage. Many residents opted to have the animals sacrificed at the butcher shops to save time. Families gathered for celebratory banquets with caterers called in to prepare large quantities of biryani rice and other delicacies as accompaniments. Id-ul-Azha emphasises the importance of sharing and empathy for the less privileged, said the religious leaders.
