Iranians Marked Eid Al-Adha
Young Iranian female musicians wear traditional dresses as they wait to perform at a celebration on the Muslim holiday of Eid al-Adha at Kahrizak nursing home in southern Tehran, Iran, on June 6, 2025. The Muslim community celebrates Eid al-Adha, the Feast of the Sacrifice, a Muslim holiday during which believers kill a sheep, sometimes a cow, to commemorate the sacred event when Abraham, following God's order, went to kill his son Ismael, but God ultimately asked him to kill a sheep instead.
