This Eid al-Adha, embrace the sacred tradition of Qurbani and partake in an act of devotion that brings joy and blessings to both you and those in need. As we approach this auspicious occasion, let us reflect on the significance of Qurbani and the immense impact it has on communities worldwide.
Qurbani, also known as Udhiyah, is the act of sacrificing an animal during the Islamic month of Dhul Hijjah, commemorating the willingness of Prophet Ibrahim (AS) to sacrifice his son Isma'il (AS) as an act of obedience to Allah's command. It is an integral part of Eid al-Adha celebrations, symbolising obedience, gratitude, and compassion.
Participating in Qurbani is not just a religious duty but a profound expression of faith and generosity. By offering a sacrifice, you fulfill a fundamental obligation and draw closer to Allah, seeking His pleasure and forgiveness.
(Tirmidhi)
The essence of Qurbani lies in sharing its blessings with those in need. The meat from the sacrificed animal is distributed among the less fortunate, ensuring that everyone can partake in the joyous festivities of Eid. This year, make a meaningful impact by participating in Qurbani through our trusted platform. We facilitate the entire process, from selecting a healthy animal to performing the sacrifice on your behalf, ensuring adherence to Islamic guidelines and the highest standards of hygiene and welfare.
Giving Qurbani in Yemen not only provides essential sustenance to families facing hardship but also embodies the spirit of generosity, solidarity, and compassion, offering a ray of hope in challenging times.

Qurbani in India extends a gesture of solidarity and kindness, ensuring that marginalised communities receive essential sustenance and experience the spirit of Eid's generosity and compassion.
Not many people know that, on the day of Eid-al-Adha, the Prophet (saw) used to give Qurbani on behalf of himself and another sacrifice on behalf of those from his Ummah who were unable to give. This extra sacrifice is what we call the Prophetic Qurbani. And yet, today this beautiful act of generosity is all but forgotten. How many of us offer a Prophetic Qurbani when giving our own sacrifice? How many are even aware of this Sunnah?
The Qur’an tells us the Prophet (saw) is the best example for mankind:
‘There is indeed a good model for you in the Messenger of Allah [saw] - for the one who has hope in Allah and the Last Day and remembers Allah profusely’. (Qur’an 33:21)
(Tabarani and Ahmad)
Donate your Qurbani and bring a smile to the faces of your Muslim brothers and sisters in Yemen.
What an opportunity we have to make one extra sacrifice for the Ummah just as our Prophet (saw) did. The extra sacrifice can be given to the needy in the same way that Zakat al-Fitr is given at the end of Ramadan, so that the poorest communities can enjoy a healthy, filling meal with fresh meat on the days of Eid-al-Adha. Giving a Prophetic Qurbani is a special act because it follows the Sunnah of our beloved Prophet (saw). There is wisdom in everything the Prophet (saw) did and immense reward in reviving his Sunnah. Furthermore, giving an extra Qurbani means even more families in need will benefit. In poverty-stricken communities, meat is an unaffordable luxury and so it is a joyous occasion when they can enjoy the generosity of a Prophetic Qurbani.
