There are two MAJOR holidays in the Islamic faith. Eid Al-Fitr and Eid Al-Adha. Eid Al-Fitr is the celebration when the fast is broken at the end of Ramadan. Eid Al-Adha is on the day after Muslims make the pilgrimage (Hajj) to Mecca from Medina. It celebrates the willingness of Abraham (Ibrahim) to sacrifice his son Ishmael to God. (God did not take Ibrahim's son. instead a ram was taken in his place.)
