TIGHT SHOT OF WOMEN AND CHILDREN AT YARD KYIV, UKRAINE - JUNE 6: As the Russia-Ukraine war continues, Muslims in Kyiv marked the Eid al-Adha, one of Islam’s holiest festivals, with prayers and reflections on peace and resilience. Dozens of worshippers gathered at the Islamic Cultural Center in the Ukrainian capital on Friday, June 6, to perform the traditional Eid prayer, upholding the religious tradition despite the challenges of war. Eid al-Adha, or the "Festival of Sacrifice," commemorates the Prophet Ibrahim’s (Abraham’s) unwavering devotion to God, as he was prepared to sacrifice his son Ismail (Ishmael) before God provided a ram instead. The occasion also marks the conclusion of the annual Hajj pilgrimage to Mecca, one of the Five Pillars of Islam. During the festival, Muslims who can afford it perform Qurbani (sacrifice) of an animal, distributing the meat among family, friends, and the less fortunate—a practice emphasizing charity and community solidarity.
