Eid ul Adha 2022

Paying homage to Prophet Ibrahim, Eid al-Adha is celebrated similarly to the story in the Quran. Since it takes place after the Hajj, Muslims take a pilgrimage ...

Eid al-Adha is celebrated by millions of Muslims around the world and typically lasts three to four days. A communal prayer (ṣalāt) happens the night before, at sundown. Between the two key Eids ("Festivals") in Islam, al-Adha is considered the holier. This was a reward for Ibrahim's loyalty to Allah. Ibrahim is recognized as Abraham in Christianity and Judaism. This year, it will begin at sundown on July 9 and end on July 10.

Eid ul-Adha 2022 starts on the evening of Saturday 9 July and last four days, coming to an end on the evening of Wednesday 13 July.

While you can specify “Eid ul-Fitr Mubarak” or “Eid ul-Adha Mubarak” to specify between the two festivals, “Eid Mubarak” alone is plenty. “Eid Mubarak” is the traditional phrase used by Muslims to greet each other during both Eid ul-Adha and the Eid ul-Fitr celebrations earlier in the year. LIterally translating as the “Festival of the Sacrifice”, and known colloquially as “Big Eid”, Eid ul-Adha is considered the holier of the two Islamic festivals.

Islamic dates depend on a verified sighting of the first crescent (hilal) of the new moon.

"The crescent needs to be sighted after sunset on the 29th of every Islamic month. This agreement states: "We assert that all efforts will be made to sight it in the United Kingdom on the 29th of each Islamic month. In nearly all of these cases, a retrospective analysis indicates that these extremely early reports of the lunar crescent are impossible and were based on false sightings. It goes on to explain: "Since 1419 AH (1998/99) several official hilal sighting committees have been set up by the government of Saudi Arabia to determine the first visual sighting of the lunar crescent at the beginning of each lunar month. There is a difference of opinions between Muslim scholars as to whether a month should start with the birth of the moon or the visibility of the moon, some experts have admitted. The Noor TV Moonsighting Board, established by Pir Noor ul Arifeen Siddiqui, boss of Aston-based Islamic broadcaster Noor TV, said Eid would be on Sunday "based on actual moonsighting in countries within our time zone."

Based on the sighting of the crescent moon, Eid ul-Adha occurs on the tenth day of Dhul-Hijjah.

The Hajj trip to the Kabba in Mecca, one of Islam's most revered customs, coincides with Eid ul-Adha. Due to the nature of the Hijri, it is impossible to anticipate its exact date; nevertheless, observers are given far longer notice than with Eid ul-Fitr, which occurs at the beginning of the month.
