The Government has declared September 25, 2015 as a Regular Holiday in observance of EID’L ADHA (FEAST OF SACRIFICE).

Eid’l Adha is one of the two greatest feasts of Islam. Based on the Islamic Calendar and the declaration made by Saudi Arabia’s highest religious authority, Eid”l Adha will be observed on September 25, 2015 (and not September 24).
