The federal ministries and institutions in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) have formally declared Eid Al-Adha vacations. Residents will get a four-day holiday to commemorate the Islamic festival, which is scheduled to last six days.
The holiday will be observed from 9 to 12 Dhul Hijjah according to the Islamic Hijri calendar, according to the Federal Authority for Government Human Resources (FAHR). The holiest day in Islam is Arafat Day, which falls on 9 Dhul Hijjah. Eid Al-Adha, widely known as the festival of sacrifice, will be celebrated throughout the next three days.
The exact dates on the Gregorian calendar will be determined on June 18, when authorities will look for the crescent moon, which indicates the beginning of an Islamic month. According to astrological estimates, Arafat Day will be on June 27, with Eid on the next day, June 28.
As a result, the holiday will most likely be from Tuesday, June 27 to Friday, June 30. Given the typical Saturday-Sunday weekend, this will result in a six-day respite, making it the year’s longest statutory holiday.
Residents will only be required to work on Monday, June 26th, before having the rest of the week off. Some staff are even taking Monday off to extend the holiday to nine days. Employees will return to work on Monday, July 3.
