Question: What is the virtue of performing qurban (qurbani, udhiyah)? Answer: If one, while one has the minimum wealth that makes one liable for performing qurban, does not perform it though it is wajib on one, one’s house cries out and curses the householder. It says, “As you have not performed qurban, may Allahu ta’ala not let you do good deeds.” That house becomes object of troubles and calamities that year. However, the house of one who performs qurban becomes happy and expresses good wishes for the householder. Count qurban as a blessing.
