Eid of Sacrifice (kids edition)


Festival OF SACRIFICE (for kids)
Muhammad Shahid Imran

         “Surely my prayer and my sacrifice and my life and my death are for Allah, the Lord of the worlds”.
           Three days of Eid al Adha teaches us to sacrifice for others. These days are the 10th of Dhul Hijjah upto the 12th of Dhul Hijjah and sacrifice may take place until sunset on the 13th Day.
            Historically it was the remembrance of the sacrifice of Ibrahim when Ishmael was about 13 Allah decided to test their faith. Abraham had a dream, in which God was commanding him to offer his son as a sacrifice. Ibrahim presented the matter to his son and asked for his opinion about the dreams of slaughtering him. Ishmael did not show any hesitation or reservation even for a moment. He said, "Father, do what you have been commanded. You will find me, Insha'Allah, to be very patient."
           When Abraham by laying down his son for sacrifice and Ishmael by lying patiently under the knife, Allah called out to them stating that his sincere intentions had been accepted, and that he need not carry out the killing of Ishmael. Instead, Abraham was told to replace his son with a goat to sacrifice instead. Allah also told them that they had passed the test imposed upon them by his willingness to carry out God's command


                So Muslims all around the world present animals for sacrifice to remember the Ibrahim sacrifice and to show their submission to Allah. They give meat of sacrificed animal to poor people and also invite them to their dinning table.
This festival teaches us
·        To have a blessed life the most important thing is to have strong faith in Allah.
·        Distribution of meat among our neighbors not only create harmony in community rather establishes environment of peace and care.
·        In our class when we sacrifice for others it help us make more friends.
·        Sacrificing as a noble deed develops inside satisfaction, on the other hand selfishness develops frustration.





·        Sacrificing our desires and possession for others give inner happiness which is immortal.
·        Napoleon Hill said great achievement is usually born of great sacrifice, and is never the result of selfishness.
·        Sometimes when you sacrifice something precious, you're not really losing it. You're just passing it on to someone else.
·        Sacrifice is a part of life and it’s supposed to be. It's not something to regret. It's something to aspire to.
