After one long year,
It has again returned,
The day which teaches us
the beauty of sacrifice...


The pivotal story behind this particular Eid is the exemplary story of a humble, simple man named Ibrahim,Abraham,Abram, who is considered to date, as a revered prophet in three particular faiths, Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, and his beloved son Ismail and their God.The story epitomizes ,the concept of sacrifice, a giving up ,an offering of some thing much loved, to one that is worshiped as their God.It shows discipline in one's faith, for the sake of which, we as humans may have to sacrifice many of our set ways, which we have so grown fond off and our unwilling to give up our foolish worldly actions .The story also gives us the message ,of obedience,and submission to the will of god.

Eid-ul-Adha transcends all limits and expands over the dimensions of human life. It marks a day of victory for the Muslim. The individual Muslim who succeeds in securing his spiritual rights and growth receive the Eid with victorious spirit. The Muslim who faithfully observes the duties which are associated with the Eid, is a triumphant one.


He proves that he holds a strong command over his desires, exercises a sound self-control and enjoys the test of a disciplinary life. And once a person acquires these qualities he has achieved his greatest victory, because the person who knows how to control himself and disciplines his passion is free from sin wrong doing, fear and cowardice, vice and indecency, jealousy, greed, humiliation and all other causes of enslavement.


Eid-ul-Adha is also a harvest day. All the good work done in the service of Allah is rewarded and all faithful believers reap the fruits of their good deeds as Allah grants His mercy and blessings abundantly without measure.

The day is also one of forgiveness. When Muslims assemble in the congregation of the day, they all whole-heartedly pray for forgiveness and strength of faith. And God has assured those who approach him with sincerity, of His mercy and forgiveness.


In that pure assembly and highly spiritual congregation, any true Muslim would feel ashamed of himself to hold any enmity or ill feeling if he had been exposed to any. Consequently, he would find himself moving along with others responding to the spirit of the day to purify his heart and soul. It is hoped that this year's Eid-Ul-Adha will bring about peace in the world at large.

It is also hoped that our brothers and sisters will reflect soberly on this festive occasion and bury their individual and collective differences to give peace a lasting chance. Total peace in will bring about development.

(collected)

Peace be unto you and the love of Allah

Eid ul Adha, the Eid of sacrifice is an occasion of Muslim community, but what it teaches humans to follow is universal. So all the Muslim and non-Muslim forum members, let us join this occasion to come together once again and wish each other prosperity in life.

Eid- ul- Adha Mubarak

What does community mean?

a group of people living together and seen

Like we do on India forum

Many of us share many likes and dislikes

Yet we come together on important days

We celebrate each others faiths

for that is what our own individual scriptures teach us

to give everyone a strong sense of being in IF community







Eid-ul-Adha Mubarak

The festival of sacrifice arrives

Seventy days after Eid -ul-Fitr

It's about what can be given up in the name of love

Ibrahim loved his creator boundlessly

His god asked him to give up his beloved son Ishmael

Such obedience Ibrahim showed to his creator

He was ready to sacrifice his child to prove

His submission to god's will !

Ibrahim passes in his test before his god

Who commands him to be still!

In place of his son Ishmael an animal appears

and received by Ibrahim s creator

it's a time to remember a big part of love

is submissive obedience..

Eid -ul- adha also marks the end of Haj

a devout Muslim's pilgrimage of Makkah

such a blessed feeling of fulfilment

for those who partake in this faith duty of devotion

be blessed all who complete their annual pilgrimage

once more we enjoy the bounteous goodness

granted to us by the Almighty

this Eid -ul -Adha ,

thank's be for friends , family

gifts of love, happy times and plenty,

for food , shelter and clothing,

thanks be for freedom

for life without fear...

on this happy day

may we also be humbled,

mould now our hearts to look out for the needy

the oppressed, the wronged

the saddened,

move to being cheerful givers,

live in peace and harmony

within our own family,

and our world family

may this Eid day our life be a blessing

for all .

Dear friends it goes without saying the respect we have for our countless members on IF who follow their personal beliefs of being Vegen/Vegetarians . I have full faith though that they will uphold the message of celebrating diversity ,peace and good will.. that India forum sees as it's strength.

Another fact I would like to point out that the story of Ibrahim s obedience to god is revered and followed by three faiths of the world community. Namely Judaism, Christianity , and Islam.
