Qurbani: The Greatest Sacrifice
Qurbani is the time of the ‘Greatest Sacrifice’- a means of having faith and conviction that everything we own in this life belongs to Allah SWT and that we submit to Him entirely. It is one of the most beloved deeds to Allah SWT and commemorates the unwavering devotion of Prophet Ibrahim (as) upon Allah’s command. Qurbani also teaches us an important lesson of following the Quran and Sunnah always and to trust Allah when faced with any hardship.
In the Noble Quran, Almighty Allah mentions: “Their meat will not reach Allah, nor will their blood, but what reaches Him is piety from you.” [Quran 22:37]
At Muslim Hands, we have been carrying out your Qurbanis for more than three decades. Our teams are working in several countries around the globe to ensure your Qurbani animals are well looked after and healthy. We also ensure the Sunnah practices of slaughtering are followed and meat is distributed to the most impoverished communities, so they too can enjoy the joyous day of Eid with their families.
Follow the footsteps of the Prophet (saw) and give your Qurbani today.
Key Facts
The Prophetic Qurbani
‘The Prophet (saw) sacrificed for the one who could not sacrifice from his Ummah, one who bore witness to the Oneness of Allah and [his] Prophethood’. [Ahmad]
The Prophet (saw) would offer an extra Qurbani on behalf of Muslims who could not afford to. This merciful deed would allow more people from his Ummah to share in the blessings of Eid al-Adha.
By offering a second, Prophetic Qurbani, you will be doubling your impact, feeding more people during the blessed days of Eid al-Adha. Don’t miss out on these rewards!
The Hanafi school states that any adult, sane Muslim who possesses the Nisab value must give a Qurbani. So if you are eligible to pay Zakat, you need to offer a Qurbani.
The Maliki and Hanbali schools state that the person responsible for the household can make the Qurbani on their behalf.
However, in many households today, it is not uncommon to have two or more people who pay Zakat. The best and safest option is for a Qurbani to be offered for each person eligible for giving Zakat.
Yes, it is permissible to give Qurbani on behalf of someone else. You can pay for your own Qurbani as well as members of your family, or anyone else. The Prophet (saw) would even give an extra Qurbani on behalf of his Ummah.
‘The Prophet (saw) sacrificed for the one who could not sacrifice from his Ummah, one who bore witness to the Oneness of Allah and [his] Prophethood’. [Tabarani and Ahmad]
After fulfilling his personal obligation, the Prophet (saw) gave an additional Qurbani on behalf of the Muslims who could not afford to do so. We encourage all of our donors to revive this forgotten Sunnah and help more needy people.
Most people choose to donate in the days of Dhul Hijjah, but some will give their Qurbani up to a month before Eid al-Adha. This year, Eid will most likely be on 7 June 2025.
As Qurbanis in each location has a set quota, we suggest you give yours as soon as possible to avoid disappointment.
Qurbani is an obligation on all Muslims who possess wealth above the Nisab value - so if you are eligible to pay Zakat, then you must give a Qurbani.
This annual sacrifice also carries the great meaning of representing the sacrifice that Prophet Ibrahim (as) was prepared to make in honour of our Creator.
No, Qurbani is a separate ritual from Zakat. However, anyone who is eligible for Zakat (any adult, sane Muslim who possesses the Nisab value) must also give a Qurbani, in accordance with the Hanafi school.
Muslim Hands works hard to ensure that the meat from your Qurbani is distributed to those in need during the days of Eid al-Adha.
