The holy Eid-ul-Adha will be celebrated in Britain and Europe next Sunday. This time, Eid prayer congregations will be held on open ground in different parts of Britain and Europe.

This time in Britain and Europe, as Eid day is fixed for Sunday, millions of Muslims, including school and college students, will have the opportunity to spend Eid with their families.

However, British Muslims have described how this year’s festivities have been particularly “heavy” due to the devastation in Gaza, which has led to the killing of more than 33,000 people and displacement of 1.9 million, according to the UN.

Every year, thousands of Bangladeshi families do quebani in London as well as in the country. Qorbani orders are being taken in Bengali, Pakistani, and Afghan grocery and halal meat shops. Md. Akhter Hussain, the owner of Insaf Halal in East London's Green Stitt area, said that the crowds in London's spice shops are increasing ahead of Eid. 

Ahead of Eid, women's and children's clothing shops in East London's Green Street, Whitechapel, were seen on Wednesday, overflowing with buyers. A buyer named Parveen Begum said that the price of everything increases during Eid in Bangladesh. And in this country, keeping ahead of Eid, the selling establishments actually offer discounts.
