Eid al-Adha is being celebrated in many parts of the world today. On the occasion, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has extended greetings on Eid al-Adha in a video message.
“Today, we join Muslim communities in Canada and around the world to celebrate Eid al-Adha, which marks the end of the Hajj. Eid al-Adha is a time to reflect on lessons of sacrifice and to show compassion to those in need. To mark the occasion, families and friends will gather to feast, attend morning prayers, and give thanks for the blessings they enjoy in life.
