Eid al-Adha is also known as the Festival of Sacrifice. It celebrates a story about a prophet called Ibrahim (Abraham). Muslims celebrate to remember Ibrahim’s loyalty and obedience to Allah above all others. Some Muslims celebrate by going to the mosque in the morning for special prayers. Later, family and friends get together for a big meal. There's lots of delicious food, including sweets. One important tradition for Eid al-Adha is helping those in need. An animal, like a cow or goat, is sacrificed. The meat then gets donated to people who can't afford it. Not all Muslims sacrifice an animal themselves. They can buy special meat from shops and donate that. Or they can donate money to charities that give special meat to others. All these ways honour the story of Ibrahim. Taking care of others is a very important part of being a Muslim. https://www.cbc.ca/
