EID FOR PEACE

Muslims Remember that they have to promote peace,and are required to abandon violent activities that are a hinderance in the establishment of peace.
Maulana Wahiduddin khan explains the rationale behind the Eid of Sacrifice,called Eid al-Adha.
An animal sacrifice on this day is purely symbolic.The real sacrifice that needed is self sacrifice.This is the higher level of involvement in Isalm.The other level in believing in Islam is like a culture and is the preliminary level.
The Islamic mission centers on 'tavahid' & 'islam';i.e;Oneness of zGod & social peace.
Peace is important for practical purpose.Without peace,there can be no constructive activity at all 
The ideology of 'tawhid'or oneness of God,is the central theme of Islam.He is self-existant;He has self created the Universe.He is alive;He is supreme and He is the sustainer of the world&He is all powerful controlling the lives of all living beings.In Islam
one must adopt a live that is God oriented.On this festival all go out and greet each other with'As-salamulaykum;means'May be peace upon you'.While concluding their prayers daily they also say'As-salamulaykumwarahamatulla-'may peace & blessings of God be upon you.'
As verse in the Quraan says:And God calls us to the home of peace.(10:25)
This means that according to divine scheme of things,it is necessary to establish a peaceful society.
Do we all follow it?Are we not being taken as the distruction of the God's will.Do we place peace anywhere near our mindless violence being done around?Should we slaughter animals & specially the Holy Hindu Cows,on this auspicious day?THINK>
