Qurbani is about: Love for Allah in contrast to love of self - TopicsExpress



          

Qurbani is about: Love for Allah in contrast to love of self obedience. Loyalty to Allah in preference to loyalty to the family. Faith versus emotion. Struggle as opposed to pleasure. Where is this spirit of Qurbani in our idle and aimless nights and days? Who is able to place the knife on his heart in order to slaughter the beasts of rebellion, hatred, jealousy, pride, and greed etc.? Qurbani is an annual reaffirmation of our pledge to Allah, a pledge that: "Verily my prayer, my sacrifices, my life and my death are surrendered to Allah; the Rabb of the worlds." Eid-ul-Adha reverberates with the cries of surrender, submission, and sacrifice. It is a grim reminder that life is about action, struggle, and endurance.
