The Islamic Centre of India has appealed to Muslims to at least donate 10 percent of their Eid-ul-Adha budget for flood-ravaged Kerala.

Head of the Islamic Centre of India and senior member of All India Muslim Personal Law Board Maulana Khalid Rasheed Farangi said the amount should be deposited in the Kerala chief minister's relief fund.

"Bakr-Eid is a festival which symbolizes sacrifice in the real sense. This time, it is the flood-affected people of Kerala who need our support," he said.

Farangi also said Eid will be celebrated on August 22 in Uttar Pradesh.
