The Arafah, an annual Muslim activity, is set to begin on Monday, September 12, followed by the 2016 Eid al-Adha on September 13th.
A date has been announced for the Arafah by the High Judiciary Council of Saudi Arabia.
The Arafah is part of the activity of the annual Hajj pilgrimage which involves standing at the Mount Arafah to pray and seek the mercy of Allah, this signifies the end of the hajj exercise.
It also ushers in the annual Muslim feast of the Eid al-Adha 2016, which falls on Monday, September 12th.
Eid al-Adha, which translates as the "festival of the sacrifice" in Arabic, marks the day that prophet Ibrahim (Abraham) was instructed, by Allah, to sacrifice an animal, rather than his son.
For Muslims, this is Islam's holiest festival, therefore, it is celebrated everywhere, making it an official holiday, all over the world.
While Nigeria has only one annual public holiday, Turkey, the UAE, Kuwait and Bangladesh are likely to observe a nine-day public holiday for this festival.
