Idul Adha Event as The Way of Keeping The Faithfulness and
Tolerance in People
Moslems in the world is attending their biggest moment that different with Idul
fitri usually called as Idul Adha or Idul Kurban.
We can see the activities of cutting animals as the sacrificing sacred
religious ceremonial in many places. Country which has majority moslem people
always held this religious program to show their faithfulness to god and can be
useful for others. People always cut the mammals, such as cows, buffaloes,
goats, sheeps, and camels as the Kurban’s animals.
The Idul Adha program always be held on Dzulhizah moslem’s month, actually on
every Dzulhizah 13 th,or same with the condition moslems in Arafah Desert,
Saudi Arabia that doing wukuf together. Over there, they follow and
remmember the history of Ibrahim and Ismail prophet. About many
years ago, They got challenge from Allah to show their faithfulness. Ibrahim
dream and got commandement from god to cut his beloved son, Ismail, as his
sacrificing. Ibrahim told his dream to his son fully about commandement to cut
his neck. Ismail agreed with the god’s commandement to show their faithful to
god, but when Ibrahim would cut Ismail’s neck, Allah changed him by the big
goat which appeared suddenly.
The story of Ibrahim and Ismail prophet that is made the way of moslems
to show their faithfulness to god and giving full to another who need
helping in the future. People can get some meanings from Idul Adha event.
They can give helping to another who still in down economical situation. In
other hand, they can also learn how to keeping the tolerance in people
that had described by Ibrahim and Ismail prophet story that showed us about the
lesson of faithfulness to the biggest god, Allah SWT and finished the
challenges patiently.
