THE STORY OF QURBANI: THE SACRIFICE OF PROPHET IBRAHIM (AS)

O, my father, do as you are commanded. You will find me, if Allah wills, of the steadfast. (Holy Qur’an 37:102)

Long before the advent of Islam, Allah (SWT) tested the faith of Prophet Ibrahim (AS) by commanding him to sacrifice his son, Ismail (AS). In a remarkable demonstration of devotion, Ismail (AS) urged his father to fulfil Allah’s (SWT) command. As Ibrahim (AS) prepared to carry out the sacrifice, Archangel Jibreel appeared and stopped him. Ibrahim (AS) had proven his obedience, and Allah (SWT) accepted his sacrifice.

The Message Behind Qurbani
