Duterte declares Eid’l Adha holiday on July 31
President Duterte has declared July 31, Friday, a regular holiday across the country in observance of Eid’l Adha or the Feast of Sacrifice. (PNA / MANILA BULLETIN) Based on Proclamation No. 985 signed by Executive Secretary Salvador Medialdea, The National Commission on Muslim Filipinos made the recommendation that July 31 be declared a national holiday. Eid’l Adha is the second of two Islamic holidays celebrated worldwide each year and is considered to be holier than Eid’l Fitr which marks the end of Ramadan. The feast honors the willingness of Ibrahim to sacrifice his son as an act of obedience to God’s command. It also marks the culmination of the Muslim’s annual pilgrimage to Mecca or the Hajj. It is one of the greatest feasts of Islam and Republic Act (RA) No. 9849 provides that it would be observed as a regular holiday. Proclamations declaring national holidays for the observance of Eid’l Fitr and Eid’l Adha are issued after the approximate days of the Islamic holidays have been determined in accordance with the Islamic calendar or upon Islamic astronomical calculations. The National Commission on Muslim Filipinos is the body that makes the recommendation based on Saudi Arabia’s highest religious body. The Philippines has been observing Eid’l Adha as a national holiday for nine years. In 2002 RA 9177 declared Eid’l Adha only a regular holiday in the Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (ARMM). Last year, Duterte declared August 12, 2019 a holiday in observance of the Feast of Sacrifice......»»
