Qurbani of a Camel

Muslims annually slaughter an animal (goat, sheep, cow, or camel).After the prayer of Eid al Adha,  between the 10th and 12th days of Dhul Hijjah, The last month of the Islamic calendar.

Our Prophet, Ibrahim, sacrificed his son Ismail for the sake of Allah; according to him, all Muslim slaughter an animal every year.

Our Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) would offer his Qurbani and then offer another on behalf of his ummah and those that could not afford to do it themselves.

 “Whoever revives a Sunnah of mine that dies out after I am gone, he will have a reward equivalent to those among the people who act upon it, without detracting from their reward in the slightest,” (Ibn Majah).

Qurbani Camel Shares

Camel in Qurbani is split into seven parts. One person can have any number of features or a whole camel for Qurbani.

One individual must provide either one part of a large animal (cow or camel) or an exclusive small animal (goat).

The sacrifice is accepted by Allah before the blood reaches the ground. Therefore sacrifice with an open and happy heart” [Tirmidhi, Ibn Majah].
