Eid al-Adha

Eid al-Aḍḥā, celebrated on Dhu l-Hijja 10, commemorates Prophet Ibrahim's near-sacrifice of Isma'il, replaced by a ram from Jabra'il. Muslims perform sacrifices in Mina during Hajj as remembrance. Emphasis is on worship: vigil on the eve, ghusl, Eid Prayer, sacrifice, ziyarah of Imam al-Husayn, and al-Nudba Supplication. Fasting is forbidden, and it is an official holiday in Muslim countries with public ceremonies.The story details Ibrahim's submission, where the knife wouldn't cut, leading to God's acceptance and the ram's sacrifice. Imam Ali recommended vigils on this night.

Eid al-Ghadir

The transcript discusses Eid al-Ghadeer, emphasizing the Prophet Muhammad's appointment of Ali ibn Abi Talib as successor at Ghadir Khumm on 18 Dhul Hijjah, supported by Quranic verses (5:67 and 5:3) and hadiths like Hadith al-Ghadeer. It highlights the event's significance as completing Islam, with the Prophet declaring, 'Whomever I am his master, Ali is his master,' followed by pledges of allegiance. Historical sources from scholars like al-Tabari confirm it, refuting distortions of 'maula' as mere friend or cousin. The next episode will address Muslim disobedience to the Prophet.
