Qurbani FAQ's

What is Qurbani?
Qurbani is the act of offering a sacrifice on Eid-al-Adha. It commemorates the supreme sacrifice offered by prophet Ibrahim (AS) to show his total submission and gratitude towards Allah (SWT). Once our beloved Prophet Muhammad (SAW) said it is the sunnah of Ibrahim (AS). For every hair of the Qurbani you receive a reward from Allah (SWT).’ (Hadith - Trimidhi). ‘Udhiyah’ is an Arabic word which refers to the animal (camel, cattle, goat or sheep) that is sacrificed as an act of worship to Allah.

What is the difference between Qurbani and Udhiyah?
Essentially, there is no difference between the two terms. Udhiya is an Arabic word meaning "blood sacrifice", and ‘Qurbani’ is an Urdu and Persian word derived from the Arabic word "Qurban" which literally means an act performed to seek Allah’s pleasure. Qurbani is far more popular among the Muslims, but Udhiya is also used commonly in Middle East.

Why do we sacrifice an animal for Qurbani / Udhiyah?
The Holy Quran informs us that in a vision, Prophet Ibrahim (AS) saw that he offered his son Isma’eel (AS) in sacrifice to Allah (SWT). When he shared this vision with his son, Isma’eel (AS) said: "O my father! Do as you are commanded: you will find me, if Allah so wills, one practising patience and constancy." However, when Prophet Ibrahim (AS) carried out the commandment, Allah (SWT) replaced him with a ram. In the Holy Quran, Allah (SWT) mentions the firm faith and obedience of both father and son as follows: “You have already fulfilled the vision – thus indeed do We reward those who do right (37:105) Al Quran.

What are the days and times for Qurbani?

Qurbani animals are goats, sheep, cow and camels. It is necessary that the goat is one (full) year old, whether male or female. A cow or bull will have to be two years old, and a camel five years. Animals that are younger are not suitable for Qurbani. A sheep (of any kind) not less than six months old, so strong and fat that it appears to be one year old will suffice for Qurbani, otherwise it will have to be one (full) year old. If an animal seller says that the animal has reached the required age, and outwardly there is no sign to disprove it, then it is permissible to rely on his statement. No other type of animals are allowed for Qurbani. In addition, the animals should be in good health.
