Qurbani – Nafl Or Farz?
Posted by Awais Imran on August 7, 2020 at 6:53 amIf Sunnah (which is source of deen) is uninterrupted practice from generation to Generation and those are Farz on us, like namaz, roza, haj, Zakat then why Qurbani is not farq or wajib on us? As Qurbani is also Riwayat of Sunate Ibrahimi? Why Ghamidi sb take this as Nafal Ibadat?

Qurbani – Nafl Or Farz?

Umer
Moderator August 7, 2020 at 1:13 pmNot just Qurbani, Itikaf (seclusion) itself is transmitted through Sunnah but is not farz. Not everything which is part of religion necessarily needs to be farz too. There has always been ijma on its status as a nafli ibadah. Only Ahnaf consider it wajib (which is a term coined by Ahnaf and has no religious bearing). In effect, there has never been any disagreement on its staus as a Nafli Ibadah.

Moderator August 7, 2020 at 10:43 pmWhat Umer sahab is saying is that Ghamidi sahab has not made qurbani into a nafil ibadah – it has been transmitted to us from day 1 as a nafil ibadah.

Member August 16, 2020 at 9:05 amYes I understand the ijma part btw sects ,but when you say it’s been transmitted as Nafil from the 1st day, tht means after the start of Sunnah from Hazart Ibrahim A.S thr was a Twaquf in this Sunnah? As Hazart Muhammad S.W himself used to do Qurbani massive Qty…

Moderator August 17, 2020 at 12:01 pmIt is a nafil ibada that has been transmitted to us with such status. If someone claims another status for it then they have provide their evidence from the Quran or the sunnah.

Moderator August 17, 2020 at 12:25 pmDo we really need proof for an ibada to be nafil? I can choose to distribute $100 every Friday to the hungry as a nafil ibada. How can I prove that it’s a nafil?

Member August 17, 2020 at 8:27 pmDistribution of $100 started by you but Qurbani started from Hazart Ibrahim and without tawaquf transmitted and done by generations, it seems tht is may have same importance throughout the civilizations, as so I understand anhaf is at correct stance making it wajab which is important than a Nafil…

Moderator August 17, 2020 at 10:52 pmWajib is just a fiqhi terminology. From pure Islamic perspective something is either fard or it’s a nafil. Fard ibadahs generally have parameters and exceptions defined, for example salat has timings and alternate modes defined, saum has timings and exceptions defined. zakat has timing and nisab (exception) defined, etc.

Member August 17, 2020 at 3:24 pmBecause you have no evidence in Quran and ahadith it’s a nafal if you find some proof you can say it’s a nafil. On this standard we can define our lbadat as nafal or frz

Member August 17, 2020 at 5:47 pmNo need a list like we all know zakat Salah and som are frz and hujj is frz with conditions like you have enough money and health to perform hujj and that you mention above is charity which is nafal mostly people can’t do that so it’s a nafal . Qurbani is also like some can afford it easily and some cannot do it that’s Why it’s nafal

Member August 17, 2020 at 5:58 pmNarrated Aisha: Muhammad never missed four Rakat before the Zuhr prayer and two Rakat before the Fajr prayer. … Aishah reports that Muhammad said, “The two (sunnah) rakahs of Fajr are better than this world and all it contains.” This is reported by Ahmad, Muslim, Tirmidhi and Nasa’i.
