The Importance of Qurbani Qurbani is an Islamic prescription for the affluent to share their good fortune with the needy in the community. On the occasion of Eid ul Adhaa, affluent Muslims all over the world perform the Sunnah of Prophet Ibrahim (PBU), by sacrificing a goat or sheep. The meat is then divided into three equal parts. The person who performs the Qurbani retains one part. The other is given to his relatives. The third part is distributed to the poor. The practice of Qurbani began with the time of Prophet Ibrahim (PBU). According to Muslim belief, one day Allah appeared to the Prophet in his dreams and commanded him that his only son, IsmaiI be sacrificed. The Prophet being a pious and a true believer was only willing to do so. Allah was impressed by his intentions and he was blessed. This tradition continues even today. Faithful Muslims all over the world submit to the will of Allah and sacrifice a part of their bounty for the benefit of the less fortunate.
The time for Qurbani 1. The time for Qurbani begins after Eid Salaat on the l0th of Dhul Hijjah and ends at the setting of the sun on the l2th of Dhul Hijjah. 2. It is better to make Qurbani on the first day, then the second day and lastly the third day. 3. Qurbani is allowed during the two intervening nights, but it is preferable during the day because of the possibility of not slaughtering correctly. 4. People living in remote village areas where Eid Salaat is not performed, may slaughter after Fajr time (Subah Saadiq-early dawn) has set in on the morning of the l0th Dhul Hijjah. 5. If a person residing in a town (where Eid Salaat is performed) sends his animal to the village (where Eid Salaat is not performed), it is permissible that his animal be slaughtered before the Eid Salaat. 6. If a doubt occurs as to whether it is the l2th or the l3th, it is Mustahab (preferable) to give away all the meat in sacrifice after slaughtering the animal. 7. If an animal bought for Qurbani was not slaughtered during these days, it must be given away alive as charity. 8. These days, i.e. the l0th, 11th and the l2th of Dhul Hijjah are known as AYYAAMUN NAHR (the days of slaughtering).
