WHAT IS QURBANI?


 WHAT IS QURBANI?

Udhiyah is one of the great rituals of
Islam, in which we remember the Unity
of Allah, His blessings upon us and
the obedience of our father Ibraaheem
to his Lord, and in this act of udhiyah
there is much goodness and blessing.
So the Muslim must pay attention to
its great importance.
Qurbani is not simply the slaughtering of
an animal and the distribution of its meat,
and it is more than a commemorative
ritual. The word 'Qurbani' is derived from
the Arabic, 'qurban', which has its root in
the Arabic word 'qurb' meaning 'nearness'
The purpose of offering Qurbani is to
draw near to Allah.
Qurbani, or Udhiya as it is known in
Arabic, is the practice of sacrificing an
animal for Allah (swt). Every year, on the
days of Eid-ul-Adha from the 10th to 13th
of Dhul Hijjah, Muslims around the world
sacrifice an animal to mark the completion
of Hajj. This practice commemorates the
sacrifice of Ibrahim (as) thousands of
years ago, who was prepared to sacrifice
his beloved son for Allah's sake.
