The act of Qurban (sacrificial offering) is the ritual slaughtering of specific livestock as a form of worship in Islam. This practice is carried out in obedience to Allah’s command to Muslims, as found in the Quran. Qurban is closely associated with the celebration of Eid al-Adha, one of the major holidays in Islam.

In general, here are some key aspects regarding the practice of Qurban:

• Purpose of the Worship: The sacrifice is performed as an act of obedience to the commands of Allah SWT and as an expression of gratitude and selflessness. It also commemorates the story of Prophet Ibrahim (Abraham) AS and his son, Ismail (Ishmael) AS, who were willing to submit to Allah’s command to sacrifice an animal as a sign of their devotion.

• Timing of the Sacrifice: Qurban is typically observed during the Hajj season, specifically on designated days in the month of Dhu al-Hijjah. The slaughtering of the sacrificial animals can take place on the 10th, 11th, 12th, and 13th of Dhu al-Hijjah.

• Types of Sacrificial Animals: The animals commonly used for Qurban are goats, sheep, and cattle (cows/bulls). These animals must meet specific criteria, such as a minimum age, good health, and compliance with Islamic rulings.

• Distribution of the Meat: The sacrificial meat is generally divided into three portions: one portion for the family performing the sacrifice, one portion for relatives or neighbors, and one portion to be donated to those in need.

• Humanitarian Aid: The practice of Qurban carries a strong humanitarian dimension, as the donated meat helps ease the burden of the less fortunate.

The act of Qurban is significant in demonstrating devotion, obedience, and the spirit of sacrifice among Muslims.
