Why Muslims celebrate id?

Answer 1

Id (pronounced "eed") means "feast." There are two Islamic feasts: 1. Eid al-Fitr, the Feast of Breaking the Fast, at the end of Ramadan. 2. Eid al-Adha, the Feast of the Sacrifice, which takes place during the Hajj, and commemorates God's mercy to Prophets Abraham and Ishmael, as God relieved the former of the duty of sacrificing the latter, allowing him to sacrifice a sheep instead. God does not (and never has) required human sacrifice.

Answer 2

Muslims celebrate Eid because it is a three-day celebration to indicate that the Holy Month of Ramadan has been completed and so has the fasting period. During these days, Muslims go to each others house to have dinner and celebrate as well.

Answer 3

Eid is the religious festival in the Islamic world. It is the day when the whole Muslim Ummah is meant to rejoice and be thankful to the Creator.

Answer 4
