The observance of Eid’l Adha shall be subject to existing community quarantine and social distancing measures, Duterte said in Proclamation No. 985 issued last July 29.
The proclamation was issued after the National Commission on Muslim Filipinos had recommended that July 31 be declared a national holiday in observance of one of the two greatest feasts of Islam.
Eid’l Adha commemorates the readiness of Ibrahim, known in Jewish and Christian religious texts as Abraham, to sacrifice his son Ishmael as an act of obedience to Allah.
Presidential Communications Secretary Martin Andanar said everyone is put to the test because of the coronavirus pandemic.
