As the time for Hajj comes to an end, and Muslims across the world are looking forward to celebrate Eid-ul-Adha, it is important to reflect on how much the Abrahamic faiths have in common. More so to recognize is that, it is a time when different sects within the Islamic faith, the Shia and Sunni, come together to honor and understand the significance of sacrifice and charity. This celebration serves as a symbol of the values we all share - compassion, tolerance and charity.
So, on behalf of the U.S. CENTCOM, we wish all of you, who are celebrating this auspicious occasion, a very happy Eid-ul-Adha.
