In the Quran, when Allah ordered Ibrahim to sacrifice his own son, Ibrahim obliged and attempted to kill his son, however, when he tried to slit his sons throat the knife wouldn't work, apparently, it was all a ruse to show how powerful Allah is, basically can stop the sharpest of knives from working, can make fire feel cold, you get the point.
Anyways, after Allah proved his point to Ibrahim, he ordered Ibrahim to sacrifice a sheep instead, and that's how "Eid al Adha" started, which basically means the celebration of sacrifice.
That's why Muslims kill sheep on this certain Eid.
Correct me if I'm wrong muslims, I honestly forget this stuff.
Thats correct and pigs are haram because you need to be clean and pigs eat there own feces
