伊斯兰教的传统节日，也是新加坡的公定假日。

DEFINITION

Noun

A traditional Islamic festival that is also a public holiday in Singapore.

由来
  • 在马来语中，Hari Raya Haji 意为“隆重的朝觐（Haj）之日”。哈芝节在伊斯兰历第12个月的第十天。
  • 哈芝节主要是纪念预言者伊布拉欣（Prophet Ibrahim）牺牲儿子伊斯迈（Ismail）来供奉上苍阿拉的事迹。实际上阿拉只是要考验伊布拉欣对阿拉的忠诚，并没有真的要他牺牲自己的孩子。阿拉最后给了伊布拉欣一头羊，这头羊代替伊布拉欣的儿子成为了牺牲品。
  • 因此在这一天，回教徒会举行宰牲仪式（Korban），将羊肉分享给家人朋友和较贫困的家庭。

ETYMOLOGY
  • Hari Raya Haji literally means “great day of the Haj” (the Muslim pilgrimage) in Malay; it is also known as Aidiladha (alternatively spelt as Eid al-Adha or Eid Adha) or the Great Day of Sacrifice. It is a Muslim festival that falls on the tenth day of Zulhijjah (the 12th month in the Islamic calendar).
  • Hari Raya Haji commemorates the Prophet Ibrahim’s willingness to sacrifice his son Ismail to Allah. Allah did not actually want Ibrahim to sacrifice his child, but only wanted to test his loyalty. In the end, Allah provided Ibrahim with a sheep to substitute as a sacrifice.
  • On this day, Muslims observe the Korban, a ceremony which involves the sacrifice of livestock. The meat is shared with family and friends, as well as the poor and needy.
