Eid-ul-Zuha or Eid al-Adha is celebrated on the 10th day of Dhu al-Hijjah, and two days after the beginning of the Hajj pilgrimage in the last month of the Islamic calendar. The festival marks the end of Hajj. Traditionally, the starting date of this festival depends on the sighting of the new crescent moon.
