Africa-Press – Ghana. <\/strong><\/span> Alhaji Mohammed Abdul Hamidu, Deputy Hohoe Municipal Chief Imam, has called on all Muslims to mark this year\u2019s Eid al-Adha celebrations with a clean heart. He said the celebration was about their Prophet, who received a ram from Allah to replace his son, Ismael, who was to be slaughtered.<\/p>\n

Alhaji Hamidu speaking to the Ghana News Agency (GNA) after prayers held at the Hohoe-Adabraka English-Arabic Basic School Park, said the celebration must be marked with good intentions towards one another.<\/p>\n

He also led prayers with prayers for peace for the nation and the world while celebrants were urged to mark the day in moderation. Two rams were also slaughtered to signify the celebration.<\/p>\n

Eid al-Adha, also known as \u201cFestival of the Sacrifice,\u201d is considered the holier of the two Islamic holidays celebrated worldwide, each year. It honours the willingness of Ibrahim to sacrifice his son, Ishmael, as a sign of faith and obedience to God\u2019s command.<\/p>\n

Assistant Commissioner of Police (ACP) Jonathan Lamptey, Hohoe Divisional Police Commander on behalf of the Service, congratulated the celebrant on their festival.<\/p>\n
