Three non-working days declared in Chechnya in connection with the celebration of Eid al-Adha

June 6, 7 and 8, 2025 will be non-working days in Chechnya in honor of the holiday of Eid al-Adha (Eid al-Adha). This is stated in the decree of the head of the republic.

In fact, only one day off has been added - Friday - since the 7th and 8th fall on Saturday and Sunday. Earlier, the heads of Dagestan and Karachay-Cherkessia also declared June 6 a non-working day.

Eid al-Adha is one of the two main Muslim holidays, which is celebrated 70 days after Eid al-Fitr. It marks the end of the Hajj - a pilgrimage to Mecca, which is considered one of the "pillars of faith" in Islam.

The main meaning of the celebration is to remind all Muslims of man's devotion to God and His mercy. The history of the holiday refers to the Koran (the holy book of Muslims), in particular to the surah (chapter) that describes the attempt of the prophet Ibrahim to sacrifice his son.
