Warning for those who Ignore Qurbani

Hazrat Abu Hurayra (radiyallahu anhu) reports that Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) said, “He who has the means of performing Qurbani but does not do so should not come close to our Eidgah ( Place of Eid Salaah).

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Qurbani on Behalf of Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) or any deceased Muslim.

If one has been favoured by Allah with wealth, then he should preferably perform Qurbani on behalf of Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) as well.One may also include the Sahabah, the entire Ummah, the Prophets and all those living or deceased relatives, friends and teachers who have conveyed Deeni knowledge or been a cause of benefit to one.

Hazrat Ali (radiyallahu anhu) reports, “Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi w asalllam) instructed me to perform Qurbani on his behalf, so I will continue to make Qurbani (on behalf of Rasulullah sallallahu wa sallam). (I’lla us Sunan)

Abu Talha (radhiyallahu anhu) has related that the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) sacrificed one ram and while sacrificing the other he said, "This is on behalf of every one of my Ummah who believed in me and testified (to my prophethood)." (Tabrani)
