MALACANANG has declared June 6, Friday, a regular non-working holiday throughout the country in observance of the Muslim holiday Eid’l Adha or Feast of Sacrifice.
President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr., through Proclamation Order No. 911 signed last May 21, said the declaration stemmed from the recommendations of the National Commission on Muslim Filipinos to declare June 6 as a national holiday.
Eid’l Adha, which is considered one of the “greatest feasts of Islam,” is one of the movable Muslim holidays observed in the country, with the other one being the Eid’l Fitr or end of Ramadan.
