In 2001 the United States dedicated a EID stamp, which was reprinted in subsequent years.One of the most important events is Ramadan, the ninth month of the Islamic calendar, during which one cannot ingest food from dawn to dusk and whose date changes from year to year since the Islamic calendar is different from the Gregorian. Among other festivities include Eid-ul-Fitr, the two day celebration of the end of Ramadan, Eid-ul-Azha, during which are sacrificed some animals, whose meat is prepared and shared with the relatives and the poor, Eid-Milad-un-Nabi, which celebrates the birthday of Muhammad.

Mawlid also called Maulid, Mulid, Mouloud etc., is a Islamic feast celebrating the birthday of the Prophet Muhammad (Mawlid al-Nabi), which marks the 12th of the lunar month of Rabi 'al-awwal. It has long been discussed saddle permissibility of celebrating or not a human being, in a religion that is fully geared to celebrate the only deity. However, the intensity of popular devotion has not prevented in any way that many mawlid were still celebrated, with considerable intense participation of the faithful.

In particular, Egypt has been fertile ground for such ceremonies, perhaps even to reply to popular devotion Coptic, which finds no obstacle of a theological in celebrating his saints intercessors.

The Eid al-Adha or feast of sacrifice or īd al-Nahr festival of the slaughter or īd al-Qurban Feast of the offer to God, called in the Turkish language Eid Qurbani is the Islamic feast celebrated every year in the lunar month of Dhul Hijjah, which takes place in the canon pilgrimage, called Hajj. Often it is also said 'īd al-Kabīr big party, as opposed to al-'īd S Aghīr small party, which is the feast of breaking the fast.

The sacrifice ordained by God to Abraham to test is the basis of the sacrificial rite Islamic 'īd al-Dhā known as The Sacrifice of Isaac. The party, which can locally be remembered with other definitions, took place on 10 Dhul Hijja immediate or in the three days 11-12-13 Dhu l-Hijja, known as Ayyam al-tashrīq, throughout the Islamic world. In those days an Islamic rule prohibits any kind of asceticism and fasting, having considered these days of joy.

The word to DH ā comes from the root Arabic < d - H -Y>, which recalls the meaning of sacrifice and is linked to the memory of the evidence that had been overtaken by the prophet Ibrāhīm and his family, formed for the specific case Hagar and their son Ishmael / Ismail.

The sacrifice ritual that is practiced during the festival commemorates the sacrifice made ​​replacement with a ram to Abraham or Ibrāhīm, totally obedient to the divine willing to sacrifice his son Ishmael or Ismail before being stopped by the angel. It is therefore the quintessential celebration of faith and of the total and unquestioned submission to God Islām.

In theory, the day of al-'īd to Dh ā , Muslims sacrifice an animal as Abraham said u DHiya or Qurbani which, according to the Shari'a, should be physically intact and adult and can only be a sheep, a goat, a cow or a camelid, in the last two cases it is possible to sacrifice an animal on behalf of more people, up to seven. The animal is killed by sticking with the severing of the jugular vein to allow blood to flow out, because for the legislation Biblical and Koranic blood is impure and is therefore forbidden to eat. The ceremony of the slaughter takes place on the 10th or the next three days, in the time period waqt between the end of the prayer in the morning and early afternoon prayer. Is slain by a man, who must be in a state of legal purity TAhara, pronouncing a takbir, which is the formula: In the name of God! God is the greatest.

The meat is preferably divided into three equal parts, one of which should be consumed immediately among family members, while the second should be stored and consumed later, and the third is devoted to the poor of the community, who do not have the economic means to purchase it.

In the present case, however, given the enormous number of pilgrims to quotas by the authorities Saudi 2 million per year and the practical impossibility to enter into a veritable massacre of extraordinary dimensions in areas of the hajj, the pilgrimage subscribes to the more in advance the expenditure required for the purchase of the sacrificial victim, which, in the case of smaller financial resources, it may be an animal of lesser economic value and smaller size of a ram. It will be slaughtered ritually in special establishments by specialized personnel and appropriate to salaried, able to work and to preserve the edible meat, in order to forward them then in those countries Islamic who have suffered from famine or war damage or in any case in which pay poor economic conditions.

For those who do not participate in the rite of the hajj, the 'īd al-Adha begins with a short prayer in the mosque, preceded by a choral Takbir and followed by a sermon khutba. In this set of ceremonies men and women participate and often the children who would have no obligation to celebrate this festival, being exempt, not yet pubescent, which, for the highly festive occasion, they use to wear their best clothes.
