Eid Aladha

The second holyday in Islam is Eid Aladha. It is placed in the 10th day of last month in the Islamic calendar “dhu-alhijah”. In this month Muslims go to pilgrimage in Mecca, Muslims call it “Alhajj”. In Alhajj there are a lot of things to do, it’s hard for me to mention it. There some pictures maybe they explain some of it.
