Qurban, We'll Eat Meat

Eid al-Adha was the day for moslems all over the world to do “Qurban”. Actually it wasn’t a must for all moslems, but only for moslems who had enough wealth. “Qurban” means to sacrifice, the moslems would sacrifice animals that were allowed like cows, goats, sheeps, or camels. After the butchering was done, the meats would be shared to everyone, especially for the poor. Then we could eat meat together. For moslems qurban was one of the best way to thank The Almighty Allah and to share to everyone. For those who could do qurban hope Allah gives you more favor, and those who couldn’t do qurban yet, hope you’ll be given chance to do it soon. Happy Eid al-Adha 1435 Hijra.
