Pecker is a key witness in the case against the former US president, who is accused of falsifying business records to cover up hush-money payment
After the prayers and sacrifices, worshippers from across the emirate flocked to friends’ and neighbours’ houses to feast, before cutting loose for the day.
Traffic was at a minimum during the morning, but by mid-afternoon the roads started to become clogged. Residents and tourists alike flocked to shopping malls and parks to make the most of the holidays.
Every inch of Safa Park’s 64-hectares was filled, with queues at all entrances by about 4pm.
The crowds were mainly families, with many opting for more sedentary picnics and barbecues, rather than joining in the party games.
Digital media manager Jihad Ghaith, 24, said he headed to the local mosque near his aunt’s house for prayers at 6.45am. The most special thing about Eid Al Adha is the spirit of camaraderie, he said.
