Celebrating Eid Al-Adha 2021
“And complete the Hajj and ‘Umrah for Allah . But if you are prevented, then [offer] what can be obtained with ease of sacrificial animals. And do not shave your heads until the sacrificial animal has reached its place of slaughter. And whoever among you is ill or has an ailment of the head [making shaving necessary must offer] a ransom of fasting [three days] or charity or sacrifice. And when you are secure, then whoever performs ‘umrah [during the Hajj months] followed by Hajj [offers] what can be obtained with ease of sacrificial animals. And whoever cannot find [or afford such an animal] – then a fast of three days during Hajj and of seven when you have returned [home]. Those are ten complete [days]. This is for those whose family is not in the area of al-Masjid al-Haram. And fear Allah and know that Allah is severe in penalty.”
Al-Baqarah 2/196
On this year’s Eid al-Adha, we sincerely wish that you can still celebrate it by doing prayers with your family at home. Hopefully, we can still commemorate this day by giving Qurbani meat to those in need safely.
