The residents across 91 villages in Chattogram district are set to celebrate Eid-ul-Azha on Wednesday, one day ahead of the rest of the country.
These early celebrations are observed by the followers of two renowned local religious centers: the Mirzakhil Darbar Sharif in Satkania and the Shah Sufi Darbar Sharif in Chandanaish upazila.
The disciples traditionally align their lunar calendar and major Eid celebrations with Saudi Arabia and other Middle Eastern nations.
The early festivities will span several hundred devotees across multiple upazilas in the district, including Patiya, Chandanaish, Satkania, Anowara, Banshkhali, Sitakunda, Lohagara, Boalkhali, and Fatikchari.
Devotees residing in parts of the neighboring Feni and Chandpur districts will also join the celebrations tomorrow.
A total of 107 Eid congregations have been scheduled for Wednesday morning across the region.
The two largest congregations are slated to take place at 7 am at the Mirzakhil Darbar Sharif and the Shah Sufi Darbar Sharif in Elahabad village.
Additionally, eight other large-scale congregations will be held in various upazilas throughout the district.
Meanwhile, the Chattogram district police confirmed that comprehensive security measures have been fully implemented across all venues to ensure safe, orderly and peaceful celebrations for the devotees.
