Description
Qurban is not merely the slaughtering of an animal and the distribution of its meat; it transcends being a mere ritual. The word ‘Qurbani’ is derived from the Arabic, ‘qurban’, rooted in the word ‘qurb’ – meaning ‘nearness’. The essence of offering Qurbani is to draw near to Allah. Through Qurbani, we reaffirm our commitment to Allah, expressing our complete submission to His will, just as Prophet Ibrahim (as) did.
