Hundreds gather in Saskatoon to celebrate Eid Al-Adha

 
SASKATOON --
Prairieland Park saw hundreds of Saskatoon’s Muslims gather to celebrate Eid al-Adha, also known as the “Feast of Sacrifice.”
“We are absolutely thrilled that this year we could, finally after so long, come back together as a community and really celebrate Eid the way that we know it's meant to be celebrated, which is together,” said Mueez Rafiquie, media, communications, and outreach representative with the Islamic Association of Saskatchewan (IAS).
Eid Al-Adha is one of two Eid celebrations held annually. Eid al-Fitr, the “Festival of Breaking the Fast,” takes place from May 2 to May 3.
The previous three Eid celebrations have either been canceled or faced major adjustments as gatherings have been limited throughout the pandemic.
