More than 100,000 worshipers gathered on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem’s Old City on Tuesday to celebrate the start of the Muslim holiday of Eid al-Adha, or Festival of Sacrifice.
The major holiday on the Islamic calendar commemorates the willingness of Abraham to sacrifice his son Ishmael in obedience to God’s command. The four-day festival observed around the world takes place at the end of the hajj pilgrimage to Mecca.
