As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa rahmatullāh!

According to the calendar, Eid al-Adha is likely to fall on Friday, June 6, 2025. May Allah allow us to witness this sacred day in sound health, strong faith, and abundant provision. Ameen.

Many people are feeling anxious this year the price of rams and livestock has skyrocketed. Some are worried they won’t be able to participate in this noble act of worship.

But take heart: Islam is ease. If you can’t afford a ram on your own, you can still earn the reward by contributing to a group sacrifice. Here's how:

✅ Who Can Share in a Sacrifice?

Camel: 7 people

Cow: 7 people

Ram: 1 person

Goat: 1 person


Yes, 7 people can share the reward and cost of a cow or camel — so gather your friends, family, or neighbors and fulfill this Sunnah together.


🐐 Age Requirements of Animals

Make sure the animal meets the minimum age:

Camel: 5 years

Cow: 2 years

Goat: 1 year

Sheep/Ram: 6 months (if it looks like a 1-year-old)


❌ What Invalidates a Sacrificial Animal?

The Prophet ﷺ taught that the animal must be healthy and free from major defects. These include:

Blindness or clearly impaired vision

Sickness or disease

Lameness that prevents walking properly

Emaciation with no marrow in the bones


(See: Sahih al-Bukhari & Muslim)


---

💡 Reminder

You may not be able to buy a ram alone, but don't miss this opportunity. Sincerity and intention are key. If you pair up with others and fulfill the Sunnah, the reward is yours just the same.

Let us prepare for this blessed day with pure hearts, good intentions, and grateful souls. 🌙

May Allah accept our sacrifices and worship. Ameen.

Psalm 51: 16-17

16You do not delight in sacrifice, or I would bring it;
you do not take pleasure in burnt offerings.
17My sacrifice, O God, is b a broken spirit;
a broken and contrite heart
you, God, will not despise.

1 Samuel 15: 22

But Samuel replied: “Does the LORD delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices as much as in obeying the LORD? To obey is better than sacrifice, and to heed is better than the fat of rams.

May God heal you guys

But do you believe in the birth Of Isaah or Jesus Christ as recorded in Quran

Do you still know Quran couldn't hide that he was miraculously born

Do you now come to ask yourself this question ....why was that allowed by God

And why was Christ Jesus accepted and adopted by all religion but Allah or Mohammed was rejected by other religions

You now see that you are the one that needs the healing because you don't leave the Messiah, a man with a different birth history to follow the teachings of Mohammed who was born like you and I and lived like you....
Do you know you can form your own Islam because there is no sacrifice for it....

But no one can form his own Christianity because you have to die on the cross for us to believe you. ....
