Cruelty to Animals Is Haraam
Dear Islamic sisters! It is a moment of concern for those Islamic sisters who are capable of performing their Wajib Qurbani but do not do so. Is the fact of them being deprived of the benefits of sacrificing an animal a small thing? On top of that, they have become sinners. It is stated in Fatawa Amjadiyyah, Volume 3, Page 315, “If Qurbani is Wajib upon a person and he does not have the money to perform the Qurbani at that moment, then he must take a loan or sell something in order to sacrifice an animal.”
(Fatawa Amjadiyyah, vol. 3, pp. 315)
May Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ grant us the ability to perform this great Fard act and to remain obedient to Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ throughout our life.
اٰمِيۡن بِجَاهِ النَّبِيِّ الۡاَمِيۡن صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم
صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب صَلَّى اللّٰهُ تَعَالٰى عَلٰى مُحَمَّد
Purpose of the creation of animals
Dear Islamic sisters! Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ has created all of creation for some purpose. Similarly, animals have also been created for a certain purpose. We are able to gain meat and milk from these animals; from the milk we are able to make beneficial things such as yoghurt, butter, ghee, etc., from their skin we are able to make warm clothes. In short, there is much wisdom in the creation of animals.
Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ states in Surah An-Nahl, part 14, verse 66:
وَ اِنَّ لَكُمْ فِی الْاَنْعَامِ لَعِبْرَةًؕ-نُسْقِیْكُمْ مِّمَّا فِیْ بُطُوْنِهٖ مِنْۢ بَیْنِ فَرْثٍ وَّ دَمٍ لَّبَنًا خَالِصًا سَآىٕغًا لِّلشّٰرِبِیْنَ(۶۶)
Translation from Kanz-ul-Iman: And indeed, there is place for you to ponder in (the example of) the cattle. We provide you to drink from what is in their bellies;
