Qurbani Fund

Aisha (RA) narrated, ‘There is nothing dearer to Allah during the days of Qurbani than the sacrificing of animals. The sacrificed animal shall come on the Day of Judgement with its horns, hair and hooves (to be weighed on a person’s good deeds). The sacrifice is accepted by Allah before the blood reaches the ground. Therefore, sacrifice with an open and happy heart’. (Tirmidhi)

For the sixth year running, the number of hungry people across the world has increased. Disaster after disaster has pushed a staggering 363 million people into deep hunger – a total of 20 million more people than the previous year. Millions of people endure displacement and conflict, only made worse by the soaring food prices.

Give any amount to our Qurbani Fund, and we’ll deliver it to where it’s most needed. Often, our supporters like to donate to our fund if they can’t afford to give a full Qurbani, or if they’d like to give more than the cost of one Qurbani.

If you donated your Qurbani with Human Appeal last year, you provided an average of 55 meat-based meals.

A blessed legacy

Help to sacrifice an animal and continue the blessed legacy of the Messenger (PBUH). It’s a unique act of worship that is given at this time of year only, allowing us to share the blessings of Eid with others in the Ummah while seeking Allah’s mercy and blessings.

For many, the Qurbani sacrifice is considered a duty for all adult Muslims who qualify for Zakat, but it’s certainly encouraged and greatly rewarded for all who are able to give, with every single hair on the sacrificed animal providing blessings to those who give.

Why give to Human Appeal?

We ensure that the people you support receive fresh, value-for-money, quality meat is used – all sacrificed according to the Prophet’s tradition. With 35 years of experience, our local teams have decades of expertise and community knowledge, working with local farmers to support businesses in each country we work in. All animals are inspected ahead of slaughter to ensure they’re healthy and well cared for. Your Qurbani is an Amanah to us, and we ensure your sacrifices are done on time between the first and fourth days of Eid al Adha, as is required for the Udhiya sacrifice. Last year, each Qurbani share provided an average of 55 nutritious meat-based meals each.

Since we buy our Qurbani animals in advance to have them ready for slaughter on Eid day, we recommend donating early so that your donation is secured, and performed once Eid prayer is complete.

Every year our team in the field endeavours to ensure your Qurbani is delivered to the country of your choice. However, in case it is not possible in the country of your choice due to factors beyond our control, we will ensure it is delivered to those who need it most in the next nearest country possible.
