“Whatever the reason I write, let my words bear testimony to belief… to surrender.”
🕋 What is Eid al-Adha?
“Let my heart not deny the state of prideness I am indulging in…”
Eid al-Adha—عيد الأضحى—translates to “The Festival of Sacrifice”. It is the second and most significant Islamic holiday, celebrated by millions of Muslims worldwide. The day begins on the 10th of Dhul-Hijjah, the final month in the Islamic lunar calendar, and coincides with the Hajj pilgrimage in Mecca.
✨ Why Is Eid al-Adha Significant to Muslims?

🕊️ Spiritual Depth Behind Eid and Hajj
Eid al-Adha is deeply linked to the Hajj pilgrimage, one of the Five Pillars of Islam. It’s not just about festivity, but transformation—both inner and outward.
“Some spend years saving, dreaming of Mecca—not for glory, but for grace. To stand in Arafat and whisper their soul’s deepest prayers.”
What is the Hajj?
A sacred pilgrimage to Mecca, required at least once in a lifetime for Muslims who are physically and financially able.
A profound journey that includes performing specific rituals: Tawaf, Sa’i, Wuquf, and more.
A moment of deep reflection, humility, and unity.
This year, Hajj 2025 will begin on June 4.

🛠️ The Connect Labours Eid 2025 Celebration
In a quiet industrial warehouse district in Seattle, where sweat and steel echo the lives of immigrant hands, a group of workers at Connect Labours is planning something different this June.
They call it “Eid under the Open Sky.”
These aren’t just any workers. These are the ones who:
Haul concrete through snow.
Build towers with bare hands.
Share roti and memories after midnight shifts.
And this month, they’ve decided:
Let’s celebrate Eid not with extravagance, but with togetherness.

It’s a lesson. A living reminder.
That sacrifice is not only about giving up—it’s about giving in:

To conscience.
📖 Lessons to Reflect On This Eid
🕯️ Faith is not blind—it’s trusting the unseen even when the seen hurts.

🌍 Unity isn’t sameness—it’s many hearts beating in the rhythm of One God.
