The Tradition of Qurbani in Islam

Qurbani, also known as Udhiya, is an Islamic tradition that involves the sacrifice of an animal, typically a goat, sheep, cow or camel, during the annual Islamic festival of Eid al-Adha. The festival marks the end of the Hajj pilgrimage to Makkah and is celebrated by Muslims worldwide.

The sacrifice is performed in remembrance of the Prophet Ibrahim’s willingness to sacrifice his son Ismail, as an act of obedience to God. According to Islamic tradition, God provided a lamb in place of Ismail, and thus the sacrifice of an animal has become a symbolic gesture of devotion to God and an expression of gratitude for his blessings.

“Their meat will not reach Allah, nor will their blood, but what reaches Him is piety from you.” (Surah Al-Hajj, 22:37)

The ritual of Qurbani is performed on the 10th, 11th, and 12th days of the Islamic month of Dhul-Hijjah, which is the last month of the Islamic calendar. It is mandatory for all adult Muslims who can afford to do so, and the meat from the sacrifice is distributed among the poor and needy, relatives, and friends.

“We have made sacrificial animals among the symbols of Allah for you. They are of great good to you. So, mention the name of Allah over them as they are lined up for sacrifice, then, when they are lying on their sides, eat of them and feed the contented and the beggar.” (Surah Al-Hajj, 22:36)

 

Rules & Regulations

There are certain rules and guidelines that must be followed when performing Qurbani. The animal must be healthy, free from any diseases or disabilities, and must be of a certain age and weight. The slaughter must be carried out in a humane and ethical manner, with a sharp knife and with the animal facing Makkah.

The distribution of the meat from the sacrifice is an essential part of the Qurbani tradition. It is recommended that one-third of the meat is given to the poor and needy, one-third to friends and family, and one-third is kept for the person performing the sacrifice.

Qurbani is a significant religious tradition in Islam, and it serves as a reminder of the importance of sacrifice, obedience, and gratitude in the practice of faith. The act of Qurbani also promotes social welfare by encouraging Muslims to share their blessings with those in need and strengthen the bonds of community and compassion.

“On the day of Eid al-Adha, no one performs a more virtuous deed than the person who sacrifices an animal. It will come on the Day of Resurrection with its horns, hair, and hooves. The blood of the sacrifice will be accepted by Allah before it even reaches the ground. So be happy with your sacrifice.” (Tirmidhi, Hadith 1493)
