What is Ritual Slaughter

What is Ritual Slaughter (Qurbani)

Sacrificing specific animal in specified days with the intention of pleasing Allah is called Qurbani (Ritual Slaughter) and sometimes the animal being sacrificed is termed as Ritual Slaughter. Ritual Slaughter is the Sunnah of Sayyiduna Ibrahim that has been retained for this Ummah and our Blessed Prophet (May Peace and blessing of Allah be upon him) was ordered to execute ritual slaughter. Allah has stated:
Translation: So offer the Salah for your Rab and execute the ritual slaughter. (Surah Kausar, Ayat-2, Parah-30)

(Bahar e Shariat, Vol-III, Page-162, Hadees 1498)
