7/8 – 7/9 – Day of Arafah

Also known as the ninth day of Dhul-Hijjah, this marks the day Allah perfected the religion of Islam. Occurring on the 2nd day of the Hajj pilgrimage to Makkah, this day is considered the holiest day in Islam. When handling any religious holiday, it is important to be sensitive to everyone’s different cultures and beliefs. Educational and factual content is the safest and most respectable way to celebrate these holidays. Always be sure to do your research and even check with a staff who celebrates these holidays for clarification.

7/9 – 7/10 – Eid Al-Adha

Another significant Islamic holiday, Eid Al-Adha celebrates Abraham’s devotion to Allah by being willing to sacrifice his son. Instead, an angel offered him a goat to sacrifice instead, so this day is celebrated through grand feasts and prayer. Similar to the example above, religious celebrations need to be approached with a degree of understanding and respect. Highlighting employees and their traditions during the holidays is another respectful way to observe the holiday through digital signage. Using the calendar app can also help highlight events and celebrations happening within the community surrounding the holiday.

Guru Purnima honors all spiritual and academic gurus and is celebrated across India, Nepal, and Bhutan. Gurus are considered enlightened humans who can impart their knowledge to others.

Streaming sermons can also help people get involved in the festivities without being there physically. It is worth repeating, always be sure you are well-informed and being respectful before posting any religious signage.
