Bakrid 2020 in India – July 31/August 1st 2020

July 29, 2020 GEDWEBZIP

Public Holiday for Bakrid is July 31st and August 1st 2020

Public Holiday for Bakrid is July 31st and August 1st 2020

As per DOPT OM Dated 18th June 2019, Holidays to be observed in Central Government offices during 2020, the Bakrid holiday falls on August 01, 2020 Saturday. Bakrid will be celebrated on August 1, in Goa. Eid al-Adha 2020 in India will begin in the evening of Thursday, 30 July and ends in the evening of Friday, 31 July.

Public holiday dates will be Friday, 31 July Saturday and 1st August 2020. Saudi Arabia announced July 31 as the date of Eid al-Adha this year. But, it will be celebrated in India on the next day.

The Shahi Imam of Delhi’s Jama Masjid, Syed Ahmed Bukhari said that Eid al- Adha will be celebrated on August 1, as the moon was not sighted on Tuesday night. However, Kerala will celebrate the festival (also known as Bali Perunnal) on July 31.

Story behind Bakrid

Bakrid traces its history to 4,000 years ago, when the Prophet Abraham saw God in a dream, commanding him to sacrifice what he loved the most. He is said to have had an only son, Ismail (until another was born to Sarah when he and she were long past the age of reproduction).

Eid al-Adha concludes the pilgrimage to Mecca. Eid al-Adha lasts for three days and commemorates Ibrahim’s willingness to obey God by sacrificing his son. The Same story appears in the Bible and is familiar to Jews and Christians

 

What is meant by Bakrid?

The festival, which will be celebrated by followers of Islam all around the world, is also known as Eid al-Adha that literally translates to “Feast of the Sacrifice”. Muslims commemorate Bakrid to mark the Prophet Ibrahim’s willingness to sacrifice his own son as an act of obedience and devotion towards God.

When Bakrid is coming?

Public holiday dates will be Friday, 31 July Saturday,  and 1st August 2020. The date of the festival varies a bit as it depends on the sighting of the moon.

What is the reason to celebrate Bakrid?

Muslims across the world celebrate it by sacrificing an animal and feast on it to celebrate the sacrifice of Prophet Ibrahim towards God and God’s compassion towards him. Bakra Eid is celebrated with much fervour amongst Muslims. After the prayers, sacrifices begin, which are then distributed among others The families feast on the goat’s meat and also distribute it to the poor. Devotees also offer the Eid al-Adha prayers at the mosque, wear new clothes and greet each other.
