Qurbani is a significant act of worship in Islam on Eid. Muslims sacrifice animals, typically a goat, sheep, cow, or camel, as an act of obedience and gratitude to Allah (SWT). This act of Qurbani was passed down to us by our beloved Prophet Ibrahim (as) and Ismail (as), reflecting on their ultimate love and devotion to Allah (SWT).

Is Qurbani farz (obligatory) or sunnah?
Once our beloved Prophet (SAW) was asked, what is Qurbani? The Prophet (saw) answered: ‘It is the Sunnah of your father Ibrahim (as). For every hair of the Qurbani you receive a reward from Allah (SWT).' [Tirmidhi]
Qurbani is considered a sunnah, which means those who perform it are rewarded, while it is not a sin for those who do not. Many scholars believe that it is wajib upon all those eligible to give Zakat (that own wealth above the value of the nisab).
Can we give money instead of Qurbani?
To fulfill the sunnah of our beloved forefather, Ibrahim (as), an animal must be sacrificed.
Qurbani is a religious sacrifice of an animal, following in the footsteps of our beloved Prophet Ibrahim (as) and his ultimate devotion to Allah (SWT). The Qurbani is made after the Eid ul Adha prayers, across the three days of Eid.
Money given cannot equate to the act of Qurbani itself, which includes the sacrifice of an animal and the distribution of meat among the vulnerable.
This command comes from the selfless sacrifice of Prophet Ibrahim (as).
It is reported in The Holy Quran that Prophet Ibrahim (as) had a vivid dream where he was being commanded to sacrifice his son, Ismail (as) for the sake of Allah (SWT). Prophet Ibrahim (as) was deeply shaken and upset by this vivid dream, which he believed to be a command from Allah. Ismail (as) was extremely precious to Prophet Ibrahim (as). When he shared this vision with his son, Ismail (as) said: "O my father! Do as you are commanded: you will find me, if Allah so wills, one practicing patience and constancy."
When Prophet Ibrahim (as) carried out the commandment, Allah (SWT) replaced Ismail (as) with a ram.
