Kaapte HotoN pe hai Labbaik ki Ek Hi Sada,

Dekhlo Arafat ke MaidaaN me Jazba Ek Hai...

Quote by Maulana Jalalud-Deen Rumi (Rahmatullahi Ta'ala Alayh)

الصلوۃ والسلام علیک یا سیدی یارسول اللہ

I Love you O (Prophet) Muhammad (Peace & blessings upon him)- may my life, my family, my belongings be sacrificed for the dust on the paths that you have tread upon! 

Aameen!

Thumma Aameen!

As-Salamu'Alaykum WaRahmatullahi WaBarakatuh,

• QURBAANI:

Zaid Bin Arqam (May Allah (Subhana Wa Ta'ala) be Pleased with him) stated that the Beloved Messenger (Peace and Blessings be upon Him) of Allah (Subhana Wa Ta'ala) was asked by his Companions (May Allah (Subhana Wa Ta'ala) be Pleased with them); What is QURBAANI?

The Messenger (Peace and Blessings be upon Him) of Allah (Subhana Wa Ta'ala) answered:
It is the Sunnah of your Father, Prophet Ibrahim (Peace and Blessings be upon Him)

The Companions (May Allah (Subhana Wa Ta'ala) be Pleased with them) asked once again; Do we get THAWAAB in this?

The Messenger (Peace and Blessings be upon Him) of Allah (Subhana Wa Ta'ala) replied:
For every Hair (of the Sacrificial Animal) you'll get Reward.

[Sunan Ibn-e-Maja]

Abu Huraira (May Allah (Subhana Wa Ta'ala) be Pleased with him) reports: “When the Holy Prophet (Peace and Blessings be upon Him) would make up his mind about the slaughter, he would buy two lambs of black colour and horns having good bodily health. He would slaughter one of them on behalf of every one from his Umma who believed in Oneness of Allah and finality of the Prophethood and he would slaughter the other one on his and his children’s behalf.”
[Sunan Ibne Maja]

Hanash (May Allah (Subhana Wa Ta'ala) be Pleased with him) reports: “When I saw Hazrat Ali (May Allah (Subhana Wa Ta'ala) be Pleased with them) slaughtering lamb, I asked him as to what it was? He (May Allah (Subhana Wa Ta'ala) be Pleased with him) said: the Holy Prophet (Peace and Blessings be upon Him) had advised him to offer sacrifice on his behalf. Therefore (in view of his advice) I am offering this sacrifice on his behalf.”
[Sunan Abi Dawood]


It stands established from this that the Holy Prophet (Peace and Blessings be upon Him) slaughtered (animals) not only on his and his family’s behalf but also on behalf of his Umma till the Day of Judgment.
Allah  (Subhana Wa Ta'ala)  blessed him with this act for commemoration and revival of the Sunnah of Prophet Ibrahim (Peace and Blessings be upon Him). That is why he advised Hazrat Ali (May Allah (Subhana Wa Ta'ala) be Pleased with him) to continue with this act of slaughter on his own and Prophet’s behalf.
He (Hazrat Ali [May Allah (Subhana Wa Ta'ala) be Pleased with him]) acted upon this piece of advice all his life.

As-Salamu'Alaykum WaRahmatullahi WaBarakatuh,

• Seventh: 

The slaughtering of a sacrificial animal (Adhiyah) is also legislated for the Day of Sacrifice (10th) and the Days of Tashreeq (11th, 12th and 13th). This is the Sunnah of our father Ibraaheem - when Allah, the Most High, redeemed Ibraaheem's son by the great sacrifice (of an animal in his place). It is authentically reported that The Prophet Muhammad slaughtered (sacrificed) two horned rams, black and white in colour, and said Takbeer (Allahu Akbar), and placed his foot on their sides (while slaughtering them). (Al-Bukhaaree and Muslim)

• Eighth:

It is incumbent for the Muslim (who is not performing Hajj) to make every effort to perform the Eid Prayer wherever it is performed, and to be present for the Khutbah and benefit.

He must know the wisdom behind the legislation of this Eid (celebration). It is a day of thankfulness and performing deeds of righteousness. So, he must not make it a day of wildness, pride and vanity. He should not make it a season for disobedience and increase in the forbidden things like music and singing, uncontrolled amusement, intoxicants and the like - those things which could cause the cancellation of the good deeds done in these days (of Dhul-Hijjah).

As-Salamu'Alaykum WaRahmatullahi WaBarakatuh,

• Fourth:

At-Tawbah (repentance) and abstaining from disobedience and all types of sins, since forgiveneand mercyare the results of deeds. Disobedience is the cause of being far away (from Allah, the Most High) and repulsion, while obedience is the cause of being near (to Allah, Most High) and His love. In the hadith of Abu Hurairah he said that the Prophet said: Verily Allah has a sense of Ghaira*, and Allah's sense of ghaira is provoked when a person does that which Allah has prohibited. (Al-Bukhaaree and Muslim)

• Fifth:

Doing plenty of voluntary (nafl) righteous deeds of worship like Prayer, Charity, Jihaad, reading the Qur'an, Commanding what is Good and Forbidding what is Evil, and other such deeds.

Verily, these are amongst the deeds that are multiplied in these days. It is during these days that even deeds that are less preferred, are superior and more beloved to Allah than superior deeds done at other times. (These deeds are superior) even to al-Jihaad - which is one of the most superior of all deeds - except in the case of one whose horse is killed and his blood is spilled (loss of life in Jihaad).

• Sixth: 

Offering animal as Udhyia It has been narrated from Umm Salamah (may Allah be pleased with her) that the Prophet said: If you see the Hilal (new moon) of Dhul-Hijjah, and any one of you wants to make a sacrifice, then he should not cut (anything) from his hair and his nails. (Muslim and others) . And in one narration, he said: .Then he should not cut (anything) from his hair, nor from his nails, until he performs the sacrifice. Perhaps this is because of the similarity with the one who is bringing a sacrificial animal for slaughter (in Haj). As Allah, the Most High, said: And do not shave your heads until the Hady (sacrifice) reaches the place of sacrifice...
