Eid al-Adha Prayers at Imam Reza (AS) Mausoleum
TEHRAN (IQNA) – The holy mausoleum of Imam Reza (AS) in Mashhad, northeast Iran, was among thousands of places across the country hosting Eid al-Adha prayers on Friday.
Eid al-Adha is one of the most important Islamic festivals held after the Hajj, the annual pilgrimage to Mecca.
Also known as the sacrifice feast, it is celebrated to honor the dedication and willingness of Prophet Abraham (AS) to sacrifice his son as an act of submission on God’s command.
