Lucknow ‘ June 2(PMI) ‘As Muslims across India gear up to celebrate Eid Al Adha 2025, the imam of Lucknow’s Eidgah, Maulana Khalid Rasheed Farangi Mahali, has released a comprehensive advisory emphasizing dignity, hygiene, and social responsibility during the festivities.

Hygiene and Environmental Responsibility
The imam has stressed the importance of maintaining cleanliness during the festival. He urged community members to perform sacrificial rituals only at designated locations and avoid using public roads or streets. Highlighting environmentally friendly practices, the advisory recommends burying sacrificial blood in the soil, where it can serve as a natural fertilizer, rather than allowing it to drain into water systems.

Caution in the Digital Age
Recognizing the influence of social media, the advisory calls on celebrants to refrain from sharing images or videos of sacrificial rituals online. This cautionary note aims to prevent any potential misinterpretations or negative repercussions.

Upholding the Spirit of Eid Al Adha

Public Holiday and Observance
Eid Al Adha 2025 is set to be observed on June 7 in India. The Telangana government has officially recognized the date as a public holiday in its 2025 calendar, facilitating widespread participation in the celebrations.

The imam’s advisory serves as a timely reminder for the faithful to observe the festival with thoughtfulness, respecting both community and environmental considerations while celebrating the sacred occasion.(pressmediaofindia.com)
