EID MUBARAK
When the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, migrated to Medina, he found that its people celebrated on two days. He asked about the two days. They told him that they were festivals that they celebrated during the days of ignorance. So he told them: "Indeed Allah has substituted them for you with two better days: the day of Adha (sacrafice) and the day of Fitr (breaking the fast)." Sahih Abu Dawud, #1039.
