Thousands of believers have heard the prayers in Tirana today, for the occasion of this important celebration in the Islamic calendar.

This celebration invites all believers to be reasonable, to sincerely return to the principles of the Islam and cultivate humane values towards everyone, especially their relatives, neighbours and the people in need.

A tradition of this celebration is the Kurban, which in the Islamic terminology means to sacrifice an animal in signof admiration, and 13rd of the meat must be given to poor families.
