Eid al-Adha or the Feast of Sacrifice, is one of Islam’s most important holidays. The holiday begins on the 10th day of the Muslim month of Dhul-Hijja, the last month in the Islamic calendar. It signifies the willingness of the Prophet Ibrahim to sacrifice his son Ismail as ordered by God. Usually lasting four days and is celebrated by millions of Muslims yearly. This Eid is a time for Muslims worldwide to celebrate the end of the hajj (pilgrimage), a journey to Mecca that is required of all able-bodied Muslims at least once in their lifetime.
As part of the celebrations, Muslims slaughter a sheep and divide the meat among family and friends. They come together for large meals and exchange gifts. Also, they give food to the less fortunate. This act of charity is an essential part of the holiday and helps ensure everyone can enjoy the festivities.
Today, we live in a fast-paced society where we are constantly busy with work and everyday responsibilities. Unfortunately, many of us will not find the time to spend it with the people that we love. During Eid, people are encouraged to be joyful and come together as a community.

As Eid approaches, it’s important to start thinking about how to best prepare your team. It can be a hectic time of year, with many people taking vacation and travel plans disrupting the work schedule. Here are a few strategies to help you get your team ready for Eid:
- First, make sure everyone is aware of the date of Eid and the expected days off. Give employees plenty of notice so they can make arrangements as needed.
- Second, put together an Eid party or celebration in your organization. This is a great way to break the religious barrier and show your team how much you appreciate them and build strong connections before the holiday break.
- Finally, enjoy the holiday. This is an excellent time for all of you to relax, enjoy and celebrate. Disconnecting from work and focusing on yourself, your family, and friends is important.
