What is the fastest growning religion in the world?

It depends entirely on how the question is read. If the question is asking what is the largest religion that is still growing, the answer would be Christianity since there are more and more Christians born and converted every day than convert out or die. If the question is asking what religion is growing by the largest numbers of new followers (both births and converts), then the answer would be Islam, since the population growth in Muslim-majority countries has made Islam the religion with the most new adherents daily. If the question is asking what religion has the greatest percentage of growth, then this would be a contest between a number of very small religions which have high percentage increases, but low current population counts, such as Baha'i or Jehovah's Witnesses. Although these cannot match the numerical growth of Christianity or Islam, the thousands of converts and newborns have a much higher relative to the <20 million adherents to the religion.


What is one holy day or festival for Islam?

Eid-al-Fitr is a three day festival celebrating the end of Ramadan, the month on the Islamic calendar that all Muslims fast in obedience to God. Ramadan is also the month in which the Quran was revealed by Allah to the Prophet Mohammad (peace be upon him). A second holy day or festival in Islam is Eid-al-Adha, or Festival of Sacrifice. The month of Hajj on the Islamic calendar commemorates the trials and accomplishments of the Prophet Abraham (peace be upon him). Eid-al-Adha begins at the end of Hajj and lasts for 3 days. It is called the Festival of Sacrifice as it is often commemorates the request by Allah of Abraham (peace be upon him) to sacrifice his son Ismail; Muslims often sacrifice an animal that they divide between family, friends and the poor.
