The Glory of Sacrifice Eid-Al-Adha

In moonlit skies, the night awakes, The call of Eid, the morning breaks. Eid al-Adha is drawing near, A time of love, of faith, sincere. Ibrahim stood the hardest test, His son he offered, at God’s behest. But mercy came from skies above, A tale of faith, a bond of love. Markets full with goats and cows, Children cheer with playful vows. Eyes gleam bright, hearts open wide, In every soul, joy and pride. Prayer begins at dawn’s first light, Hearts unite in pure delight. Then sacrifice, in God’s own name, A sacred act, never in vain. The poor receive their rightful share, A plate of joy, a sign we care. On this day, we stand as one, No rich or poor beneath the sun. Let Eid return with every year, Its lessons deep, its meaning clear. May sacrifice not end today, But live in all we do and say.
