(MENAFN- Khaleej Times)
UAE residents are gearing up for a four-day break to celebrate the Islamic festival of Eid Al
Adha. More than just a public holiday, the festival holds deep spiritual significance for
Muslims. It is observed a day after Arafah, the holiest day in Islam, and is marked by prayers,
celebrations, and festive meals shared with loved ones.

The UAE has declared a four-day public holiday for the occasion. The break begins on
Thursday, June 5, - the day of Arafah - and continues until Sunday, June 8. Eid Al Adha itself
falls on Friday, June 6. This year, the occasion is especially significant for Muslims, as it
coincides with Friday (Jumuah) prayers, meaning both the Eid and Jumuah prayers will be
held on the same day, each accompanied by a sermon.

The UAE Fatwa Council recently clarified that Eid and Jumuah prayers will be observed
separately and at their respective times.
