@Sam : you may because you are not familiar with the back-ground. Its a sunnah/ritual that was initiated by Prophet Abraham and hence made a compulsory act for all Muslim that can bear the cost of sacrificing an animal in the name of Allah.Frankly speaking i'll suggest you to go through a good piece of writing on the subject to get a better understanding. may you be blessed and guided towards the right path.

@Sam how about you try to feel sad for millions of those poor in India who don't even have a single morsel to eat, or may be try to feel sad for women getting raped in all over India.

We are liberating these souls trapped in animal bodies and it is good and more such acts should be done.

@Rashid Nasim The Sacrifice is for the most precious thing and not of the animals bought 2-7 days ago.
