Eid Qurbani 2025 is approaching, reminding Muslims worldwide of the incredible legacy of Prophet Ibrahim’s (AS) devotion and submission to Allah (SWT).
This sacred occasion, also known as Eid ul Adha, stands as a symbol of faith, obedience, sacrifice, and generosity. It’s a time when Muslims offer Qurbani (animal sacrifice) to commemorate Prophet Ibrahim’s willingness to sacrifice his beloved son for the sake of Allah.
As we prepare for Eid Qurbani 2025, it’s important to reflect on the true meaning of this blessed act and how we can best fulfill our religious obligations while uplifting those in need.
What is Eid Qurbani?
Qurbani refers to the ritual sacrifice of a livestock animal (sheep, goat, cow, or camel) during Eid ul Adha.
This act commemorates Prophet Ibrahim’s (AS) ultimate test of faith when Allah commanded him to sacrifice his son, Ismail (AS). In response to his complete submission, Allah replaced his son with a ram and made Qurbani a symbolic tradition for Muslims.
Performing Qurbani during Eid ul Adha is a Sunnah Mu'akkadah (highly recommended practice) for those who can afford it. It represents the willingness to submit to Allah’s will and share the blessings of sacrifice with the less fortunate.
When is Eid Qurbani 2025?
Eid ul Adha 2025 is expected to begin on the evening of Sunday, 6 July 2025, depending on the sighting of the moon.
The act of Qurbani must be performed after the Eid prayer on the 10th, 11th, or 12th of Dhul-Hijjah, the final month of the Islamic calendar.
Muslims should prepare ahead of time by arranging for their Qurbani animal and ensuring it meets the Islamic requirements.
Rules and Conditions for Eid Qurbani 2025
For your Eid Qurbani 2025 to be valid, certain Islamic guidelines must be followed:
The person offering Qurbani must be Muslim, sane, and financially able.
The animal must be healthy, free from defects (like blindness, sickness, or broken horns).
The Qurbani must be performed after the Eid prayer; sacrifices before that are not considered valid.
Animals eligible for sacrifice include sheep, goats, cows, and camels.
One small animal (like a goat or sheep) is equivalent to one share, while larger animals (like cows and camels) are divided into seven shares.
The meat must be distributed fairly, usually into three parts: one for the family, one for relatives and friends, and one for the needy.
Following these rules ensures that your Eid Qurbani 2025 is accepted by Allah and brings maximum blessings.
Importance of Sharing During Eid Qurbani
The essence of Eid Qurbani lies not just in the sacrifice itself but in sharing.
By donating portions of the meat to the poor and hungry, Muslims embody compassion, generosity, and social responsibility — key pillars of Islamic teachings.
Today, millions around the world suffer from food insecurity. Your Eid Qurbani 2025 can bring nourishment, joy, and hope to families who rarely have access to fresh meat.
It’s a powerful reminder that Eid is not only a time of celebration but also a time of caring for others and showing gratitude for Allah’s blessings.
