Point

The giving of meat; wherever you reside, is a symbolic gesture to celebrate the release of the sanctioned ordered by Allah ; of the Sacrifice that Ibrahim was ordered to carry out on his son via a extraordinary dream; sent as a blessing to Ibrahim, through the affection of the humble mercy of worship, in relation to Allah's commandments of laws' in regards to Ibrahim and how Ibrahim carried out all humble requirements set by Allah's ordained orders'.

Ibrahim after many years of trying for a child; after the announcement of his wife's barron-ness of unable to bare-child, a miracle was granted and a blessing was granted to Ibrahim , the bestowment of a son-child, when he and his wife were aged.

The dream disturbed Ibrahim, but after conference with a abdullah - son of humble nature, the sacrifice became a seemingly easy fold of conduct to carry forth.


And so Ibrahim's son, ordered his father to obey the insights of the blessings of the inspirational dream.

On the moment of slaughterous impact; a metal rift between the aid of the instrument and Ibrahim's son's neck, stopped the moment of impact, at the bequest of Allah's command, and Ibrahim's son cried forth, in ordering the continuation of the sacrifice, and on each occasion the rift of metal increased in strength of rigidness, as the sacrifice was unable to take place.

And so the sanctions of the sacrifice were lifted, and reprieve was granted, due to the internal love for Allah that both worshippers showed towards their all-creator.

And so; to replace the offering of the sacrifice of Ibrahim's son , a sheep was ordered by the command ment of Allah, to symbolise Ibrahim's commitments towards Allah's offerings', and thus as true believers we identify that Allah's laws' are to be obeyed, by the the sent commandments of scriptations and narrated stories of authenticity.

And that the sharing of meat, and exchanging of meat from the sacrifice of the lamb and or sheep, no matter where we leave and reside, brings our thoughts back to that very day when Ibrahim, was commanded with his only son, in old age, to slaughter him in awe of and out of a purity of sacrifice in relation to the extent of Ibrahim's Love towards his creator.

And that, not to follow the sunnah in the ways of the exchangments of meat and sacrifice , breaks down the happiness of sharing in the happiness and rejoice that Ibrahim felt that very day, when his reprieve was granted, and it was only granted because his intentions were sincere.

And that, we know that there are starving people in the world , but with the joining of celebratory victory of Ibrahim's purity of heart, it brings us back to the remembrance of the stories of the pure worshippers of old age, and without it, we forget minor details, of the event, so therefore, yes it is vital to do this symbolic action wherever Muslims reside.

And that, we all contribute to the funds of the poor and share in the same traditions and culture of the sacrifice and exchangements of meat, as th offering, breaks up the rift between the poor and rich, as one ummah of practise.


And that, there is no harm in being wrong sometimes', but you must realise your mistakes' by humbleness towards the one creator.

with love.
