The event is to commemorate Prophet Ibrahim’s (Abraham’s) complete faith and trust in God. This was related in the story of God commanding Ibrahim to sacrifice his son, Ismail (Ishmael), a commandment that Ibrahim responded to with obedience. God stopped him and provided him with a sheep to substitute as a sacrifice, instead of his son. The festival also marks the end of the Hajj (the Muslim pilgrimage to the holy city of Mecca in Saudi Arabia.
