Muslims around the world are celebrating Eid al-Adha, one of the two most important festivals in Islam.

Known as the 'Feast of the Sacrifice', the three-day celebration marks the end of the annual Hajj pilgrimage to Mecca in Saudi Arabia, which more than 2.3 million Muslims have embarked on this year.
