STORYLINE:
Over two thousand muslims gathered in downtown Sarajevo on Thursday to celebrate the beginning of Eid al-Adha, a three-day holiday that marks the end of the Hajj, the annual Muslim pilgrimage to Mecca.
Thousands gathered in and around the mosque for the central ceremony prayers held in Begova Mosque.
Eid al-Adha is a holy celebration for Muslims, commemorating the prophet Abraham's willingness to sacrifice his son for God.
According to Muslim tradition, after Abraham expressed his willingness, God sent the
prophet two sheep instead for slaughter.
