Question

I would like to find out if I can use my credit card to purchase a sheep for Qurbani, is it allowed will it be accepted by Allah?

Answer

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

As-salamu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullahi wa-barakatuh.

It is permissible for one to use a credit card to purchase a Qurbani animal.

You should ensure that you do have money in your account or you make timeous payments to avoid interest on late payments.

And Allah Ta’ala Knows Best
