A sheep is weighed before it is sold at a market before the Eid-al-Adha festival in Srinagar January 18, 2005. Muslims around the world celebrate Eid-al-Adha by slaughtering sheep, goats and cows to commemorate Prophet Abraham's willingness to sacrifice his son, Ismail, on God's command. Eid-al-Adha in Kashmir falls on January 21. The ships are marked with dye for identification purposes.
