Eid-Ul-Adha is the Muslim festival of sacrifice, where practicing Muslims slaughter rams, camels or cows in remembrance of prophet Abraham's show of faith and patience to the Almighty Allah, when he asked him to sacrifice his son Ishmael.

Although most of these players are actively involved in pre-season exercises, some took time to wish their brothers and sisters in the faith Eid-Ul-Adha.

Wakaso posted a lovely picture of his family, with the caption," Eid Mubarak", with Asante Kotoko defender Ismail Ganiu posting a lovely photo with his wife with the inscription, Happy Eid.

FC's Nordsjaelland's Maxwell Woledzi shared a video with teammate Simon Adingra wishing Muslims good celebrations.

And Goalkeeper Fatawu Dauda shared a picture with his newly wedded wife on Twitter with the caption, "Happy Eid Ul Adha to all ummah from Mr & Mrs Dauda."
