BAKRID will be celebrated on
Saturday, 07 June 2025 by Muslims. I request Muslim Citizens of India to avoid
‘ANIMAL SLAUGHTER’. For that matter—Animal Sacrifice for any religion shall be
totally discouraged. It was a Pagan custom. Islam is the only ‘ABRAHAMIC’
religion that indulges on this. ‘QURBANI’ for religion of a defenceless animal
is cruel and equivalent to ‘MURDER’.
