The holidays of Kurban-Bayram and Uraza-Bayram are the two most important religious holidays in the Muslim religion. According to the faith, it was these two holidays that the Prophet Muhammad himself appointed for Muslims and ordered them to be celebrated annually.
Feast of Kurban Bayram
Kurban-Bayram also has the Arabic name Eid al-Adha. This is a festival of sacrifice. The history of the holiday Kurban-Bairam begins with the readiness of Ibrahim (in other religions - Abraham) to sacrifice God's own son Ismail as a sign of his faith (and Islam is precisely the eldest son of Ismail, although in other religions the younger child of Abraham is usually called Isaac). God, as a sign of the reward for the great faith, awarded Ibrahim, replacing his son with a sacrificial animal. Muslims symbolically repeat the feat of Ibrahim, sacrificing a sheep, a cow or a camel.
In which number is celebrated the holiday of Kurban-Bayram, is calculated according to the lunar calendar. It takes place on the 10th day of the 12th month, and the festivities last for 2-3 more days.
On the day of the Muslim holiday of Kurban-Bairam, believers visit the church, and listen to the preaching of the mullah, the word of Allah, visit the cemetery and remember the deceased. After this, a ceremony takes place, which is the essence of the holiday of Kurban-Bayram - the sacrifice of an animal. Muslims on this day should treat meat to the poor and homeless, showing generosity, and also to visit relatives and friends, giving them gifts.
Holiday of Uraza-Bayram
The holiday of Uraza-Bairam follows immediately after the holy month of Ramadan and symbolizes the end of the fast, which the faithful Muslims had to keep all month long.
