Muslims all over the world observe Eid-ul Adha (in Arabic) or Hari Raya Aidil Adha (in Malay) on the 10th day of Zulhijah, the last month of the Muslim calendar.This festival is celebrated in conjunction with the pilgrimages performed by Muslims, called the Haj and to commemorate Prophet Abraham's spirit of Qurban or sacrifice. Thus, in Singapore, Hari Raya Aidil Adha is also known as Hari Raya Haji or Hari Raya Qurban. In Singapore, the day is spent offering thanksgiving prayers and prayers for forgiveness at the mosques early in the morning. After prayers, Muslims conduct the 'qurban' - slaughtering of animals such as lambs and goats.

During this festive season,my family and I went to the mosque for our usual mourning prayer. We then greeted each other by shaking hands. At home we had a big feast with all by favourite dishes. By the lunch time my relatives started to visit us.. I liked it as it is the day where all of us forgive each other and unite which is good to see. I was playing with the children while my parents had a long chat with the adults.(relative). I really cherished this day as each and everyone looks happy even though they had their own problems or anger at each other. This is also the day where adults would give green packets to the children. Hence all children would look forward to this day. I was one of them too...

tats about it.. nothing much to say
