VIVA – The history of Prophet Ibrahim’s Qurban, which marks the beginning of the Eid al-Adha commemoration, is an important event in Islamic tradition. It is a story that demonstrates Prophet Ibrahim’s unwavering faith and submission to Allah’s command.
According to Islamic beliefs, Prophet Ibrahim was a prophet sent by Allah to guide people toward monotheism. He lived thousands of years ago in the region that is now present-day Iraq and is considered one of the greatest prophets in Islam.
The story of Prophet Ibrahim’s Qurban is narrated in the Quran and Hadith (sayings and actions of the Prophet Muhammad).
According to the Islamic narrative, Prophet Ibrahim and his wife Sarah were childless for a long time. As they grew older, Prophet Ibrahim prayed to Allah for a righteous child.
Allah answered his prayer and blessed Prophet Ibrahim and Sarah with a son named Ismail. Ismail grew up to be a pious and obedient young man, and Allah tested Prophet Ibrahim’s devotion through a remarkable command.
In the story, Allah commanded Prophet Ibrahim in a dream to sacrifice his beloved son Ismail as an act of obedience.
