Muslims usually sacrifice an animal like a goat or a sheep to prove their devotion and love for Allah. They wear new clothes, visit family members and friends and sacrifice an animal as an act of “Qurbani.”

As like all the past years they are not able to perform namaz at the masjid , meet their relatives and friends and not even organize functions at a grand level. But everything is going to be okay soon. We all hope for the well being of one and all.
