Qurbani - Where Most Needed

When the Messenger ﷺ was asked what Qurbani is, he answered, “It is the Sunnah of your father Ibrahim. For every hair of the Qurbani you receive a reward from Allah.” (Al-Tirmidhi)

For £60, you can provide fresh beef or goat to families in need, with Qurbani share offering up to 55 nourishing meals.

Your Qurbani at a glance:

• 3 families helped per Qurbani
• Niger – at least 3,600 families targeted
• Mozambique – at least 240 families targeted
• Tanzania – at least 240 families targeted
• Somalia - at least 5,940 families targeted
• Location selected based on most urgent need
• 3-5kg fresh meat per family, dependant on country
• Over 1.1 million people helped last year

Your Qurbani will provide around 55 meals, providing one share of a cow or an entire goat, depending on the region and country.

Chadians are facing one of the highest rates of hunger in the world due to a combination of drought, crop failures and conflict. Families are facing the worst and hungriest inter-harvest season ever recorded, with 1.9 million children malnourished.

5.5 million people in Mozambique need humanitarian help, and 4.9 million are facing severe food insecurity. Over 600,000 people are internally displaced by conflict, climate crises and poverty.

In Tanzania, 23% of child deaths are related to under-nutrition and 37% of children have stunted growth.

Families in Niger face a severe hunger crisis, with over 1.2 million children malnourished and urgently in need of food.

In Somalia, almost 4 million people have been displaced. 6.5 million urgently need food now to survive - and with over 50% of the population living below the poverty line, many will struggle to afford it.

Be a mercy to families enduring hunger across these countries this Dhul Hijjah.

Reviving a Sunnah of the beloved Messenger ﷺ

£120– continue the Sunnah of giving two Qurbani sacrifices in Niger, Chad, Tanzania, and Mozambique, and spread the reward and blessings. Give one Qurbani as your own charity, and one on behalf of the ummah who can’t afford to give – just as the Messenger ﷺ used to do. Help us to revive this beautiful Sunnah and give your Qurbani on behalf of the ummah who can’t afford to give.

The Messenger of Allah said, “Whoever revives a Sunnah of mine that dies out after I am gone, he will have a reward equivalent to that of those among the people who act upon it, without that detracting from their reward in the slightest…” (Ibn Majah)

Don’t miss out on the blessed rewards of Dhul Hijjah, the most blessed 10 days of the whole year. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ likened each night of these 10 days to Laylatul Qadr, since they are filled with Allah’s mercy, blessings and forgiveness.

Reap the blessings of these unique days.

Same quality Qurbani, affordable options

Despite rising costs, we know times are tough, so we’ve committed to maintaining the cost of our most affordable Qurbani this year, at just £26 - without raising any prices to reflect our growing costs. We’ve not changed the cost, or the quality!

Why give to Human Appeal?

We ensure that only the best quality fresh meat is used – all sacrificed according to the Prophet’s tradition. We don’t compromise on quality and we deal with local suppliers to help local communities flourish. We have 35 years’ experience fulfilling this sunnah, ensuring your sacrifices are done on time between the first and fourth days of Eid al Adha, with one Qurbani share, on average, providing up to 55 meals for the families we support together.

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

Last Qurbani, you helped us reach over 1,195,563 people with fresh, nutritious meat.

Give your Qurbani today, and reap the reward of the most blessed 10 days of the year.

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.
