Second Day Of Eid Al-Adha In Kashmir, India

Kashmiri Muslims prepare to slaughter a buffalo on the second day of Eid al-Adha celebrations in Srinagar, Jammu and Kashmir, on May 28, 2026. Eid al-Adha is one of the holiest Muslim holidays, marking the yearly pilgrimage, Hajj, to Mecca. During the festival, Muslims slaughter goats, sheep, and cattle in commemoration of the Prophet Abraham's willingness to sacrifice his son to demonstrate obedience to God. The meat is divided into three parts: one for family, one for friends and relatives, and one for the poor and needy. The ongoing Middle East crisis and disruptions to global supply chains have contributed to increased food and livestock prices, making this one of the most expensive Eid al-Adha seasons in recent years. This situation has also affected the Indian economy by raising fuel and transportation costs, adding inflationary pressure, and disrupting trade routes and imports dependent on the region. Muslims around the world are celebrating Eid al-Adha, marked by prayers, sacrifices, and gatherings with family and friends. (Photo by Firdous Nazir/NurPhoto)
