In its official FB page, Mariveles SB said in Filipino "Pagdiriwang ng Sakripisyo" kung ating tawagin ang kapistahang ito, bilang paggunita sa natatanging sakripisyong ipinakita ni Ibrahim sa Panginoon.

It was not known how many Muslims live in Mariveles, a costal community in this peninsula.

“Para sa milyun-milyon nating kapatid na Muslim, ito rin ang pagtatapos ng kanilang taunang paglalakbay sa Hajj.

"Nawa'y ang pagdiriwang na ito ay mas mag-udyok sa atin upang mamuhay nang higit sa ating mga sarili, at buksan ang ating palad, puso, at isipan para sa mga pinaka nangangailangan. Isa rin itong pambihirang pagkakataon upang mas pagtibayin ang ating nagkakaisang lahi: isang bayang walang iniiwan at tinatalikuran, anuman ang relihiyon, kulay ng balat, o lugar na pinagmulan.
