All Yemeni people are celebrating the blessing Eid Al-Adha as all Muslims do every year. This occasion historically related to religious rituals of the prophet Ibrahim when he came back to Macca where he left his family and his son Ismail. This occasion takes along three days.
In this occasion, Yemeni people go out happily for practicing wonderful customs such as wearing new and traditional costumes while children wearing new clothes with innocent smile, and shaking hands with all people and visiting all relatives and giving them Assb (money that is given for female relatives and children). Every one is happy in Eid.
