Two Big Events In Islam

There are two big events in Islam. They are Eid al-Fitr and Ied Adha. Ied fitri is the 1^st Syawal day (one of the month in Arabic  Calendar) and it is after Ramadhan where every Muslim fasts for 30 days. In this day, all of Muslim in the world come back for being a holy person after taking out side tithe that is given for one of eight class, such as poor people, very poor people, muallaf (someone who are new to Islam, gharim (someone who have many  debt), etc. They forgive  each other, no revenge in their feeling, visit each other whether their family or their friends. Usually in this day, they make many kinds of foods, drinks and cakes. Such as, Soup, Ketupat (rice cake boiled in a rhombus- shaped packet of plaited young coconut leaves), Apam and rice tape. Also, in that day they pray Ied Fitri in field or Masque. Having breakfast is  better for them to do before going to pray Ied Fitri. There is no sadness in their face. They are happy to welcome a day full of forgiveness, the day when they be a holy person. The second event  is Ied Adha.  The days are 10^th , 11^th, 12^th, and 13^th    of Zulhijjah days, the day  coincide with the Standing at Arafat (Muslims who go to Mecca). Also, in this day they go to field or masque to Pray Ied Adha but better for them for not taking breakfast before going to pray Ied Adha. In that day, many cows and buffalos are slaughtered, we named it as Kurban. This day is also called as Ied Kurban. The meat of these cows and buffalos will be distributed to the poor people.  No sorrow on this day, everybody in happiness.  At two these feasts, all the families of relatives who live far away come and gather together. Both are really a blessing days.
