In Indonesia's capital, Jakarta, Muslim worshippers prayed shoulder-to-shoulder in the streets and the Istiqlal Grand Mosque was filled for morning prayers Friday.

Eid al-Adha, known as the “Feast of Sacrifice,” coincides with the final rites of the annual Hajj in Saudi Arabia.

It’s a joyous occasion, and food is a hallmark with devout Muslims buying and slaughtering animals and sharing two-thirds of the meat with the poor.

The government has made next Monday an additional holiday after Friday’s festival to allow people more time with their families.

Eid momentum is expected to support economic growth in Indonesia, where household consumption helps drive GDP. It contributed over 50% to the economy last year, though analysts expect more subdued consumer spending in 2025.
