Can a Muslim do Fariza-e-Qurbani on behalf of his deceased parents?

Qurbani is the graceful act every Muslim man and woman wants to perform on 10th of Zil-Hijjah. It is indeed pleasurable to know that the act of Qurbani is’farz’ upon every man and woman. Apart from this, Muslim can also perform Qurbani from behalf of their deceased parents. It will help in deletion of their sins before the emergence of the Day of Judgment when they would appear to be accountable in front of Allah (S.W.T.).


Usually sadiqah-e-jariah, contribution in charity, recitation of the Quranic verses and ayaats are the acts one individual Muslim can perform so that his/her deceased father or mother would get benefit (Sawaab). But we are thankful to Allah (S.W.T.) that He made the instructions for Qurbani flexible enough that both alive and dead Muslims would earn Ajar-o-Sawaab by slaughtering their bought Halal animal to fulfill the purpose the Qurbani.
Muslim son can carry out Qurbani on behalf of his expired parents. Muslim woman would have to follow the same instructions. If she is married then she has to ask his husband so that his husband would carry out Qurbani for her deceased parents. If he doesn’t allow her then she couldn’t perform this act. But if   is single or married and she earns money, if she wants to perform Sunnat-e-Ibrahimi for her parents then she is allowed to do so.


Among the months of Islamic calendar, the last month of Zil-Hijja is the most blessed of them. It is advised to recite specific aurado-wazaif and to offer ‘Nafl’ Namaz from the 1st of Zil-Hijja till 13th of the month. This should be kept in mind that ‘Fariza-e-Qurbani’ is only applicable to those Muslim brothers and sisters who have gone through the stage of Puberty.

It is especially advised to the Muslim Ummah to follow this act if they want their deceased beloved to receive bestowed blessings from Allah (S.W.T.) wherever they are after they had played their roles upon the stage of the world. Our beloved Prophet whom we also call as ‘Companion of Allah (S.W.T.)’ AND Hazrat Ismail has done a great of kindness towards humanity and Muslim Ummah.

Hidayah for Muslim sisters if they want to carry out Sunnat-e-Ibrahimi

Muslims who perform Sunnat-e-Ibrahimi are fortunate people because they slaughter qurbani animal in order to please Allah Almighty and prove Him that He is the mighty over all of us. We perform the ritual of qurbani in the memory of our beloved Prophet Hazrat Ibrahim (A.S.) and Hazrat Ismail (A.S.)
They happily had done whatever they were asked to perform by Allah Almighty. Qurbani can be both performed by Muslim men and women. The deed of qurbani is ‘farz’ upon ‘baligh’ Muslim man and woman. If they can afford goat, cow, sheep, buffalo, camel or other qurbani animal they are most welcome to do Sunnat-e-Ibrahimi.


Women are always questioned about performing their deed of qurbani.  Yes, they can also fulfill the act of qurbani. The second question comes in our mind is that are they allowed to do revise the ritual of qurbani in halat-e-haidh(monthly bleeding from uterus) and halet-e-nafaas (bleeding after the birth of her baby)?
The question has been brought to light by several Muslim women because generally they aren’t allowed to offer namaz (Salat), they can’t fast in month of Ramadan, they can’t offer pilgrimage in Kaaba and also they aren’t allowed to recite or read Holy Quran but they can verbally read or recite it. Allah has bestowed His blessing upon His every creation verily it is the human who always do bad with his/her self. Allah (S.W.T.) has also allowed women in halat-e-haiz or in halat-e-nafaas to slaughter their bought qurbani animal.
If a Muslim is capable enough then Allah would be pleased by him when he carries out qurbani on behalf of his zooja (wife) who is alive nurturing his kids, looking after his house and living with him under one roof.
Muslim Women are also allowed to act upon the ritual of qurbani normally. All Sharia-qurbani laws are applicable to them surely. Women can perform the qurbani on the behalf of their deceased grandparents, parents and spouses. It is also a fact that Muslim can also dedicate his qurbani to our most adored Prophet Hazrat Muhammad (P.B.U.H).
Allah (S.W.T.) has provided us with Deen-e-Kamil. Every commandment and instruction scripted in Quran Shareef by Allah has logical basis, as we believe in His sovereignty we can’t deny any of His prescribed instruction to act upon.
