What Is Qurbani in Islam? 

Qurbani and Udhiyah refer to the same act of sacrifice performed during Eid al-Adha. Qurbani is commonly used in Urdu and Persian, while Udhiyah is the Arabic term for the sacrifice.  

The sacrifice takes place between the 10th and 12th of Dhul-Hijjah, following the tradition of Prophet Ibrahim (AS).  

The meat is divided into three parts: 

• One third for those in need  

• One third for family, friends, and neighbors  

• One third for your household  

This ensures the blessings of Eid reach beyond your home.
