Eidul Azha commemorates the sacrifice of Prophet Ibrahim (AS) as Muslims across the globe begin their day with special prayers, followed by a religious sacrifice. Congregations are held in mosques as well as other open places in cities, towns, and villages all over Pakistan.
And our favourite players could not help but celebrate this joyous occasion with their fans.
