Brilio.net - This year's Eid al-Adha is a special moment for Fairuz A Rafiq's son, King Faaz . Different from previous years, this year, for the first time, King Faaz bought sacrificial animals with his own savings.
According to Fairuz A Rafiq , the son made his intention to buy a sacrificial animal to be slaughtered on Eid spontaneously. This suddenly surprised Fairuz, considering that this wish came from the mouth of a 12 year old child.

"So this is the first time the sacrifice actually uses your own money. Collecting it yourself uses Eid money," said Fairuz, quoted from Kapanlagi.com, Thursday (13/6).
The mother of three added that if her son sacrificed he used his personal money from collecting Eid red packets. This noble desire emerged when he and his child were in the car.
"And Alhamdulillah, it was from Faaz's own brother's wishes, so I was really happy, actually I was enthusiastic because I saw that Faaz's brother wanted to make a sacrifice using his own money and it was from him himself who said, 'I want to make a sacrifice, okay'," he continued.
Fairuz was even more amazed when his eldest son expressed his intention to help others. Apparently, Faaz hopes that the meat of the sacrificial animals can later be distributed to the Palestinian people.
"So I was happy and that's it, once he found out that his sacrifice could be distributed to Palestine he was even happier. So it was really certain that it would be accepted by those who really needed it," he explained.
According to Sonny Septian's wife, Faaz's desire to sacrifice began when he saw a brochure about sacrificing. Initially, Sonny Septian's wife thought that it was just a momentary wish from her child that would soon pass.

"He immediately said, 'Brother, can you make a sacrifice or not?' "He said that, and at that time I was like, that's okay, that's the name of a parent, I can say that, I want to know whether the child will change his mind or not, maybe tomorrow or the day after tomorrow," said Fairuz.
Apparently, Faaz's intention to sacrifice was no joke. This year, King Faaz chose to sacrifice a medium-sized goat. The sacrificial animals will later be distributed to Palestine.
