Bangladesh to celebrate Eid-ul-Azha on July 21

Bangladesh will celebrate Eid-ul-Azha on July 21 as the moon for the month of Zil Hajj on the Islamic calendar has been sighted.

The National Moon-Sighting Committee made the announcement after a meeting at the Islamic Foundation’s office in Baitul Mukarram on Sunday, reports bdnews24.com.

Eid-ul-Azha, the second largest festival of Muslims after the Eid-ul-Fitr, is observed on the tenth day of Zil Hajj, the final month of the Arabic calendar.

Muslims sacrifice animals during the festival to shun away the evil inside and seeking the blessing of the almighty.
