What is Eid e Ghadeer?

Eid e Ghadeer is a special day in Islam that marks the event when Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) announced Hazrat Ali (RA) as his successor.

This happened on 18 Dhul-Hijjah, during the Prophet’s return from his last Hajj. At a place called Ghadeer Khumm, he said in front of a large group of Muslims:

“Man kunto maula fa haza Aliyun maula”

Translation: “Whoever I am the leader (mawla) of, Ali is also their leader.”

Shia Muslims believe that on this day, the Prophet (PBUH) clearly announced that Hazrat Ali (RA) was chosen to lead the Muslim community after him. Eid e Ghadeer is important because it reminds Muslims about the importance of true leadership, following the right path, and staying united under the guidance chosen by the Prophet.

Why is Eid e Ghadeer Important?

Shia Muslims see this as a clear declaration of leadership after the Prophet. The day highlights the values of true guidance, unity, and loyalty to the leadership chosen by the Prophet himself.
