Q: In a nutshell, what is the sunnah of sacrificing an animal at qurban time? A simple way please Jak

Answer:

·      One must say: Bismillah Allahu-Akbar when slaughtering.

·      Do not sharpen the knife in front of the animal. Ensure the knife is sharp and slaughter the animal swiftly to reduce all suffering.
·       One must not skin the animal before it becomes completely cold. However, one must wait until its life has fully excuses itself,
·       Do not slaughter one animal in the presence of another.

It is desirable (mustahab) for one who intends to perform Qurbani to refrain from cutting their hair or nails from 1st of Zul Hijjah to 10th of  Zul Hijjah, (Until after Qurbani).

Allah Certainly Knows Best.
