Qurbani is the sacred act of sacrificing an animal during Eid al-Adha, commemorating Prophet Ibrahim's (AS) unwavering devotion. It's a profound expression of obedience and a means to support those in need.
Performing Qurbani draws us closer to Allah (SWT) by embodying the spirit of giving. It calls on those you are fortunate to help vulnerable communities that need nourishment. With your help, we help distribute Qurbani across the world, including regions like Kenya, Pakistan, and Yemen.
Ensure your Qurbani is performed on time and reaches those who need it most.
Join us in spreading joy and sustenance to those in need.
"Qurbani is an obligation for every adult Muslim who is financially able — meaning they possess wealth above the Nisab threshold (similar to the threshold for paying Zakat). It is performed during Eid al-Adha to honor the tradition of Prophet Ibrahim (AS).
Qurbani is carried out after the Eid al-Adha prayer on the 10th of Dhul Hijjah and can be performed until sunset on the 12th of Dhul Hijjah. Sacrificing before the Eid prayer does not fulfill the obligation.
Yes. You can give Qurbani on behalf of family members, deceased loved ones, or others, as long as you have the intention and means to do so. Many people also give extra shares as a form of charity.
