If you are an adult and in the days of Eid ul Adha – 10th, 11th, 12th Dhul Hijjah (Approx Dates: 29th, 30th June & 1st July 2023) you have the Nisab of Zakat = £367.42 (calculated on 26/05/2023 – this can vary according to the price of silver), Udhiyah/ Qurbani is Wajib on you.
(Adult in Islam is anyone who is Mature (Baligh) or 15 years old according to Islamic Hijri Calendar!)
(So if you have children who are Baligh or 15 years of age according to the Islamic Hijri Calendar and they have the amount of Nisab saved up on the days of Eid, then it is Wajib on them to do Qurbani)
Please help feed the poor and most needy this Eid ul Adha by offering your Qurbani there and please remember them in your duas.
Allah S.W.T says in the Quran, Surah 22, Verse 37:
It is neither their meat nor their blood that reaches Allah, but it is piety from you that reaches him. Thus have we made them subject to you that you may magnify Allah for His Guidance to you. And give glad tidings (Oh Muhammad S.A.W) to the Muhsinun (doers of good) .
When the Prophet S.A.W was asked “what is Qurbani? “He answered, “it is the sunnah of your father Ibrahim A.S. for every hair of the Qurbani you will receive a reward from Allah, and for every hair in the wool you will receive a reward,” (ibn Majah & Tirmidhi)
The Messenger of Allah S.A.W said:
‘When the new moon of Dhul-Hijjah appears and one of you wants to do the sacrifice, then he should abstain from (cutting) his hair and his nails.’
And in a narration:
‘Then he should not take anything from his hair or from his nails until he sacrifices.’
(Saheeh Muslim)
Zayd ibn Arqam R.D relates that the Companions asked “O Messanger of Allah S.A.W! What is Udhiyyah?” He replied, “It is the sunnah of your father Ibrahim A.S.” They asked again, What benefit do we get from it?” He answered, “A reward for every hair (of the sacrificed animal).’ And (what reward is there for animals with) wool, O Messenger of Allah?’ they asked, A reward, he said, “for every fibre of the wool.” (Sunan ibn Majah)
