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.
