Muslims are continuing holy celebrations with Eid al-Atah, the feast marks the Prophet Ibrahim's readiness to sacrifice his son for God in a test of faith.
At the very point of sacrifice God gives Ibrahim a ram to slaughter instead, thereby creating a feast which millions of Muslims still commemorate today.
It's a time for families to come together to share prayer and food.
