Celebrating Hari Raya Haji or Festival of Sacrifice in Singapore

If Eid Fitr is celebrated as a day of victory after fasting for a month in the month of Ramadan, then Eid Adha or also known as Hari Raya Haji is celebrated as a commemoration of the willingness of Ibrahim to follow Allah’s (God’s) command to sacrifice his son, Ismail. Therefore, this Hari Raya is also called the festival of sacrifice. These two celebrations are one of the most eagerly awaited holidays for Muslims.

Eid Adha is celebrated for four days by slaughtering sacrificial animals such as sheep and cows. These sacrificial animals are obtained from Muslims who want to perform sacrificial bodies. The sacrificial animals are believed to be mounts in the Mahsyar later.

This sacrifice celebrates compassion, sharing wealth, and remembering blessings. The sacrificial meat was also distributed to the less fortunate who needed it.

Another tradition that is carried out by Muslims during Eid Adha is gathering with family, friends, and neighbors. Guests will be treated to various kinds of cookies and foods such as lemang, rendang, etc.

In Singapore, Eid Adha is also celebrated by Muslims and becomes a Public Holiday for Singapore residents. So, there is nothing wrong if you want to have a vacation in Singapore during Hari Raya Haji and enjoy the procession of slaughtering sacrificial animals directly.
