Eid Al-Adha

Al-Kawthar—meaning, all kinds of the highest success, in this world and the next, have been written for you forever. This prediction of the Quran came true completely in the years that followed. Eid al-Adha commemorates the day of the pledge of sacrifice, which opens the door to all noble achievements. In this world, true greatness belongs only to those who are prepared to fulfil their responsibilities in every situation— those willing to endure hardships and make sacrifices to carry out the duties entrusted to them.
