Benefits Of Qurbani

[Gham-e-Madinah]

Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem

 

ASALATU WASALAMU ALAYKA YA RASULLALLAH Salla Allahu ta'ala 'alayhi wa Sallam

 

The Prophet Sallalahu alaihi wasallam has said, "a person does not perform any action on Baqar 'Eid which is dearer to Allah Azzawajal than Qurbani. This Qurbani will come on the Day of Judgement, with its horns, hair, and hoofs, and at the time of sacrificing the animal, it is accepted by Allah Azzawajal even before the blood of the slaughtered animal reaches the ground. Therefore, perform Qurbani happily and open-heartedly.

{Tirmizi, Volume 3, Page 162, Hadith 1498, Dar-ul-Fikr Beirut}

 

Sayyiduna Shah Abdul Haqq Muhaddith-e- Dehlvi Rahmatullah alaih says that the sacrifice will be placed upon the side of good deeds, of the one whom performed it. Due to this, his good deeds will be become (considerably) weighty. {Ash'a-tul-ma' aat, Volume 1, Page 654, Quetta}

 

Mullah Ali Qari Rahmatullah alaih says, "then it will be a conveyance for him and with this conveyance the person will comfortably cross the bridge of Siraat. Furthermore, every limb of this (animal) will be a Fidya for every limb of his owner (i.e. The one whom originally presented the sacrifice)."

 

SubhanAllah Azzawajal!

 

To sacrifice a specific animal on a specific day for the sake of Allah Azzawajal, for the intention of gaining reward, is called a Qurbani.

Qurbani is a an act of Ibaadat with goods. Qurbani is waajib upon every adult muslim male and female who is sane, not a traveller, and is owner of Nisaab.('Owner of Nisaab' means to have an excess in value of goods/valuables/ currency in comparison to the current value of 612.36 grams silver or 87.48 grams gold. Note that in present times, Nisaab value is usually calculated against the silver Nisaab, not the gold Nisaab) {Durr-e-Mukhtar, Fatawa Alamgiri}

 

Sayyiduna Ahmad bin Is'haaq Rahmatullah alaih says, "my brother, in spite of facing poverty, performed Qurbani (sacrifice) on Baqar 'Eid annually, to attain the pleasure of Allah Azzawajal. After his death, I dreamt that the Day of Judgement had been established and people have emerged from their graves. All of a sudden, I saw that my deceased brother was riding on a piebald (spotted or patched) horse and with him were numerous other horses. I asked him 'oh brother! How did Allah Azzawajal deal with you?' He replied, 'Allah Azzawajal has forgiven me'

 

I asked, 'due to which action?' He replied, once, I gave one dirham to a poor old woman with the intention of receiving virtues. That offering has benefited me.' I then asked him, 'and these horses?'

He said, 'well, these horses are in fact my Baqar 'Eid sacrifices and this particular horse, which I am riding upon, is my very first sacrifice.'

I then asked, 'where are you heading towards?' He replied, 'heaven.' After saying this, he disappeared from my sight."

{Durra-tun’Naasiheen , Page 290, Dar-ul-Fikr Beirut)}

 

May Allah Azzawajal have mercy upon them and forgive us for their sake. Ameen,Thum Ameen.

It is compulsory to perform Qurbani within its fixed days and time. Anything else cannot be an alternative to it, e.g. Instead of performing Qurbani, to give the value of a goat in the form of money is insufficient. {Fatawa Alamgiri, Volume 5, Page 293}

 

The time of Qurbani is from the Subh-o-Saadiq (dawn) of the 10th Dhil-Hajj until the Sunset of the 12th Dhil-Hajj - totalling 2 days and 3 nights. However it is Makrooh to perform Qurbani at night.

 

Just as it is Sunnah to slaughter the animal of Qurbani with your own hand, it is also Sunnah to remain present at the time of slaughter with the intention of gaining benefit & virtues for the Hereafter. But to surround the Qurbani animal for mocking and to enjoy the moments of sacrifice and the vigorous movements of the animal, then to laugh over it or to make a big scene of it, is a sign of negligence. When slaughtering or authorizing someone to slaughter for you in your presence, it is important that you remain present with the intention of acting on a Sunnah and also make other good intentions as well. For example, 'I am sacrificing an animal for the pleasure of Allah Azzawajal, as and when required, I will even sacrifice my life for the pleasure of Allah Azzawajal', also intend, 'upon slaughtering the animal, I am also slaughtering my evil desires and from now on I will refrain from sins and transgressions. '

 

A person should show mercy and affection for the sacrificial animal and should carefully think to himself that 'what if I was sacrificed at this very place, what will be my state?'

 

Rasoolullah Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam said to his beloved daughter Hadrat Bibi Fatima Zahra RadiAllahu anha to be present at her Qurbani, as at the time of spillage of the first drop of blood of the Qurbani, all your sins are forgiven. Harrah Abu Saeed Khudri asked: "Ya Rasoolallah Sallalahu alaihi wasallam, is this

exclusively for your family?" Our beloved Rasool Sallallahu Sallalahu alaihi wasallam replied "it is for my family and for all the Muslims."

 

At the time of slaughter, it is a virtuous deed to show mercy and affection for the sacrificial animal. Once, a blessed companion RadiAllahu anh politely asked, "oh Messenger of Allah Azzawajal wa Sallalahu alaihi wasallam! I feel mercy and affection upon slaughtering a goat."

 

The Beloved Nabi Sallalahu alaihi wasallam replied, "if you will show mercy for it, Allah Azzawajal will show mercy to you."

{Musnad Imaam Ahmad, Volume 5, Page 304, Hadith 15592, Dar-ul-Fikr Beirut}

 

Just look at the thoughfulness of our Beloved Master and King, the Holy Prophet Hazrat Muhammad Mustapha Sallallaho Alaihi Wasallam and his concern for us, that he made a Qurbani on behalf of his Ummat and thought of us, therefore, if a Muslim can - then they should perform an additional Qurbani on behalf of the Holy Prophet then it would be a very good and fortunate act [bahaar-e-Shariat] .

 

May Allah Azzawajal grant us the wealth, ability and desire to regularly partake in this great Sunnah. Ameen.
