With Eid al-Adha around the corner, many Muslims across the UK will be getting ready to celebrate by donating their Qurbani for the year.
The act of Qurbani refers to the Islamic act of ritual animal sacrifice, however, there is much more to it than simply sacrificing an animal in the name of God (more commonly known by the Arabic word Allah).
As with many acts in Islam, a key aspect of Qurbani is not the sacrifice, but the charity that comes from it. Traditionally, once the animal has been slaughtered according to Islamic law, one third of the meat will be kept for the family, a third given to neighbours and a third given to the poor and vulnerable.
This ensures that families that are unable to afford an animal can still have a feast for Eid. Read more: Do you need to fast before Eid al-Adha?
