On the blessed day of Eid-ul-Adha, the Prophet Muhammad (saw) performed two Qurbanis: one for himself and one on behalf of those in the Ummah who were unable to sacrifice for themselves. This second Qurbani, known as the Prophetic Qurbani, is a beautiful Sunnah practice that the Prophet (saw) encouraged his family and companions to follow.
The tradition of the Prophetic Qurbani was continued by the noble Sahabah (ra) and holds great significance in Islam. Unfortunately, this practice has been forgotten by many Muslims today. However, it is never too late to revive this Sunnah and embrace its numerous benefits.
Allah (SWT) reminds us in the Noble Quran that the Prophet Muhammad (saw) is the best example for mankind. Following his exemplary teachings is a way for us to strengthen our faith and draw closer to Allah (SWT). What better way to practice the Sunnah than by giving a Prophetic Qurbani?
Performing a Prophetic Qurbani has several benefits. Firstly, it allows us to fulfill the Sunnah of the Prophet (saw) and follow in his footsteps. It is an act of obedience and a means of seeking Allah's pleasure. Additionally, giving a Prophetic Qurbani enables us to help millions of Muslims who are unable to offer a Qurbani sacrifice themselves due to financial constraints.
In many impoverished communities around the world, meat is a luxury that is beyond the reach of many families. By offering a Prophetic Qurbani, you can ensure that these communities have the opportunity to enjoy a hot, nutritious meal on the day of Eid. Just as Zakat al-Fitr is given to feed the poor at the end of Ramadan, a Prophetic Qurbani ensures that the less fortunate can also partake in the blessed festivities of Eid-ul-Adha.
By giving on behalf of the poor and needy, you not only increase your own reward but also ensure that these individuals are included in the joyous celebrations of Eid. Your contribution will bring smiles to their faces, alleviate their hunger, and make a significant difference in their lives.

May Allah (SWT) accept our Prophetic Qurbanis and shower His blessings upon us all.
