Mosques and several religious sites across the country on Monday were thronged by the devout who gathered to offer namaz on the auspicious occasion.

Much of Asia, including Indonesia, Malaysia, India and Bangladesh, observed Eid ul-Adha on Monday, while Muslims in other parts of the globe, including Saudi Arabia, Libya, Egypt, and Yemen celebrated the holiday on Sunday.

Eid ul-Adha commemorates the Quranic tale of Ibrahim’s willingness to sacrifice Ismail as an act of obedience to God. Before he could carry out the sacrifice, God provided a ram as an offering. In the Christian and Jewish telling, Abraham is ordered to kill another son, Isaac.
