The episode highlights how Qurban, or the sacrificial act of slaughtering livestock, is not merely a ritual but a profound expression of faith, compassion, and charity. Islam teaches that the act of Qurban should be carried out with the utmost care and respect for the animals involved. The principles of Ihsan (excellence in worship and conduct) and compassion are central to this practice. Muslims are encouraged to treat the animals with kindness, ensuring they are well-fed, comfortable, and slaughtered swiftly and humanely to minimize suffering.
"The Prophet sacrificed two horned, Amlah rams, slaughtering them with his own hand, pronouncing the name of Allah, and saying: 'Allahu Akbar, and placing his foot on their sides."
