Hadith Mubarak related to Qurbānī on Eid Al Adha

Sayings of the Holy Prophet صلی اللہ تعالی علیہ وسلم

The one who performs Qurbānī of an animal gets the reward of one good deed for each hair of the sacrificed animal. (Sunan-ut-Tirmiżī, vol. 3, pp. 162, Ḥadīš 1498)

The one who wholeheartedly performs Qurbānī of an animal for reward, his Qurbānī will serve as a barrier between him and hellfire. (Al-Mu’jam-ul-Kabīr, vol. 3, pp. 84, Ḥadīš 2736)

O Fāṭimaĥ! Stay near your sacrificial animal because your sins will be forgiven as soon as the first drop of its blood falls down. (Sunan-ul-Kubrā lil-Bayĥaqī, vol. 9, pp. 476, Ḥadīš 19161)

The one, who can afford to perform the Qurbānī but does not perform it, should not come near our Eid-Gāĥ [i.e., an open ground designated for Eid Ṣalāĥ]. (Sunan Ibn Mājaĥ, vol. 3, pp. 529, Ḥadīš 3123)
