How many holidays will there be for Eid al-Adha?

For those eagerly awaiting a break this year, the Eid-ul-Azha holidays may be shorter than expected. Predictions suggest that the first day of Eid will fall on Saturday, June 7, 2025, which means the holiday will likely coincide with the weekend, offering fewer days off for workers and students.

While the news may disappoint many hoping for an extended holiday, it’s important to note that the official confirmation of the Eid date is still pending. The final decision will be made after the moon sighting, with the Ruet-e-Hilal Committee set to announce the official start of the Islamic festival.

Eid-ul-Azha, one of the most significant festivals in Pakistan, is celebrated with feasts, prayers, and the sacrificial ritual of animals.
