Stockbreeders are seen near sacrificial animals which were waited to be sold at Marbat Livestock Market after their value increased due to drought and exportation with Senegal and Mali during Eid al-Adha in Nouakchott, Mauritania on August 12, 2019. Muslims worldwide celebrate Eid Al-Adha, to commemorate the holy Prophet Ibrahim's (Prophet Abraham) readiness to sacrifice his son as a sign of his obedience to God, during which they sacrifice permissible animals, generally goats, sheep, and cows. Eid-al Adha is the one of two most important holidays in the Islamic calendar, with prayers and the ritual sacrifice of animals. (Photo by Ozkan Bilgin/Anadolu Agency via Getty Images)
