Muslims around the world will celebrate by slaughtering animals to commemorate God's gift of a ram to substitute for Abraham's son, distributing the meat amongst family, friends and the poor. Eid al-Adha also takes place immediately after the Hajj, a pilgrimage to Mecca that is a pillar of Islamic Faith. Some 2.5 million Muslim faithful from all over the world descended on Mecca this year, many encountering an unusual occurance: heavy flooding due to recent torrential rains. Collected below are photographs from this year's Hajj and observance of Eid al-Adha. <a href="http://mypixup.com/share-05F5_4B7C2ECD.html" target="_blank"><img src="http://mypixup.com/image-05F5_4B7C2ECD.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></a> <a href="http://mypixup.com/share-7440_4B7C2ECD.html" target="_blank"><img src="http://mypixup.com/image-7440_4B7C2ECD.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></a> <a href="http://mypixup.com/share-9784_4B7C2ECD.html" target="_blank"><img src="http://mypixup.com/image-9784_4B7C2ECD.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></a> <a href="http://mypixup.com/share-275B_4B7C2ECD.html" target="_blank"><img src="http://mypixup.com/image-275B_4B7C2ECD.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></a> <a href="http://mypixup.com/share-7EEF_4B7C2ECD.html" target="_blank"><img src="http://mypixup.com/image-7EEF_4B7C2ECD.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></a></blockquote>
