Concerning (Eid al-Adhaa)
From Tafsir Ibn Kathir:
The Goal of the Udhiyyah (Sacrifice) according to Allah is the Sincerity and Taqwa of His Servant.
Allah says: This sacrifice is prescribed for you so that you will remember Him at the time of slaughter, for He is the Creator and Provider. Nothing of its flesh or blood reaches Him, for He has no need of anything other than Himself. During the time of Jahiliyyah, when they offered sacrifices to their gods, they would put some of the meat of their sacrifices on their idols, and sprinkle the blood over them.
Ibn Abi Hatim recorded that Ibn Jurayj said,
"The people of the Jahiliyyah used to put the meat of their sacrifices and sprinkle the blood on the House, and the Companions of the Messenger of Allah said, "We have more right to do that."
Then Allah revealed the words:
لَن يَنَالَ اللَّهَ لُحُومُهَا وَلَا دِمَاوُهَا وَلَكِن يَنَالُهُ التَّقْوَى مِنكُمْ
It is neither their meat nor their blood that reaches Allah, but it is Taqwa from you that reaches Him.
May Allah accept it from everyone.
Eid Mubarak🤍
