In Islamic rituals, Hadi refers to an animal to be sacrificed as part of the Hajj or Eid-ul-Adha practices. Sacrificing an animal symbolizes obedience, gratitude, and submission to Allah (SWT).

During Hajj, the sacrifice is performed on Eid-ul-Adha, and it is an essential part of completing the pilgrimage, particularly for those performing Hajj al-Tamattu‘ or Hajj al-Qiran. The meat of the sacrificed animal is usually distributed among family, friends, and the needy, reflecting the Islamic principles of charity, sharing, and community welfare.

Understanding the concept of Hadi is important for pilgrims as it is not only a physical act of sacrifice but also a spiritual reminder of faith, devotion, and submission to Allah. The type of animals allowed for Hadi includes sheep, goats, cows, and camels, following specific Islamic guidelines.
