Abstract

Worship in Islam encompasses not only vertical (hablum minallah) dimensions but also horizontal (hablum minannas). Among the manifestations of worship that involve financial and social aspects are qurban, aqiqah, and gifts. Although all three involve the transfer of ownership or the slaughter of an animal with social impacts, there are fundamental differences in terms of law, due to sharia law, the timing of implementation, and their intended use. This article aims to comparatively analyze the differences between these three concepts from an Islamic legal perspective. Using a juridical-normative method with a literature study approach, the analysis results show that qurban is an annual worship related to Eid al-Adha, aqiqah is an expression of gratitude for the birth of a child, while gifts are voluntary gifts to strengthen ties of kinship without being bound by time or a specific type of commodity.
