Eid-ul-Zuha literally means the Eid of Sacrifice because Hazrat Ibrahim was sacrificing his son Hazrat Ismail on the orders of Allah. Seeing his right spirit, Allah had given life-giving to his son. That date was the 10th of the month of Dhu-al-Hijjah according to the Islamic calendar. In the memory of him, the Muslims of the world celebrate the festival of Bakrid. At the behest of Allah, the Islamic law of sacrificing animals, not humans, started. The date of Hajj in Mecca Medina also coincides with this Bakrid festival. People who go to Saudi Arabia to perform Hajj. They sacrifice animals there.
