England cricket star Moeen Ali joined an estimated 40,000 worshippers for prayers at Eid al-Adha in Small Heath Park today.
Moeen was pictured in a hat and black zip-up top instead of his more familiar Waitrose-sponsored white England shirt.
Moeen tweeted: “Eid salah done! Eid Mubarak to everyone. May Allah accept everyone’s hajj. Ameen!!”
Another large scale event was held in Ward End park as well as prayers at various mosques around the city.
Earlier today, National Express warned of potential delays around Small Heath between 9am and 1pm due to the prayers in the park.
Network West Midlands then tweeted at 11am to say services were running up to 30 minutes late due to traffic congestion.
