## Understanding Qurbani

Obligatory (Hanafi) or sunnah mu'akkadah (other schools) for adult Muslims who possess the nisab amount.

## Selecting the Animal

Sheep/goats: at least one year old. Cattle: two years. Camels: five years. Must be healthy and free from defects. Sheep/goat counts for one household; cattle/camels shared among seven.

## The Sacrifice Process

Performed after Eid সালাত on 10th-12th of Dhul Hijjah. Face animal toward qibla, say Bismillahi Allahu Akbar, and slaughter with a sharp knife. The animal should not see the knife.

## Meat Distribution

Divide into three equal portions: household, relatives and friends, and the poor. You may eat from the qurbani meat.

## Modern Alternatives

Arrange through authorized butchers, মসজিদs, or international charities that perform sacrifice on your behalf in countries with greatest need.

## Common Questions

You can perform qurbani for deceased relatives. Additional qurbanis are permissible. Stop cutting hair and nails from 1st of Dhul Hijjah until sacrifice.

## Teaching Children

Explain Ibrahim and Ismail's story. Involve children in distribution. Help them understand qurbani as worship.
