The Islamic Festival of Sacrifice

In this episode, we explore the deeper meaning of Eid al-Adha and its powerful connection to the story of Prophet Ibrahim (Abraham). We reflect on the themes of faith, patience, and sacrifice - highlighting how Ibrahim’s devotion, the story of his son Ishmael, and the trust shown by his family offer timeless lessons for believers today. We also examine the Quranic clarification on which son was intended for sacrifice, the historical role of Hagar, and common misconceptions found in biblical and modern interpretations. The discussion extends to insights on trust in marriage, the importance of prayer, and how the spiritual essence of Eid can guide Muslims to draw closer to Allah in daily life.
