Devotees from across the country celebrated Eid al-Adha by offering prayers at mosques and at their homes on Saturday.
Masjids across the globe witnessed a fair bit of footfall as the devotees were seen offering prayers while following all COVID-19 norms.
Normally, people on the occasion greet each other with hugs but this time people are wishing each other -- Eid Mubarak -- keeping in mind the importance of social distancing to combat the virus.
