The Gift of Qurbani: A Season of Sacrifice, Unity, and Joy
As the sacred season of Qurbani draws near, we’re reminded not only of a profound act of devotion, but of a chance - an opportunity - to make a real difference in someone's life.

As the sacred season of Qurbani draws near, we’re reminded not only of a profound act of devotion, but of a chance - an opportunity - to make a real difference in someone's life. Qurbani is at its core an expression of compassion, solidarity, and faith. It's a moment to reflect on what we’ve been given, and how we can share that blessing with others.
Qurbani takes us back to the timeless story of Prophet Ibrahim (peace be upon him), whose unwavering trust in Allah set the standard for submission and sacrifice. Every year, we commemorate that trust - not through symbolism, but through action. It’s fulfilling a duty, but it's also about living the values of devotion, selflessness, and humility.
For those receiving meat, Qurbani is a moment of joy. A day on which some people walk for miles to collect their meat, resulting in stomachs filled, and families celebrating together. That one act of sacrifice on your part becomes a source of relief and happiness for someone who may have gone weeks without nutritious food. It’s not just meat - it’s mercy, wrapped in kindness. And in an age where Eid may have lost its spark for many, this is the perfect opportunity to reflect on how our Qurbani is the cause of so much joy and happiness for many in our Ummah worldwide.
This year, in select countries, Islamic Help is offering 1-to-1 Qurbani feedback with personal video updates. When you give, you’ll receive a message showing the direct impact of your sacrifice. A moment of joy captured, shared back with you. It’s a powerful connection between giver and receiver that brings the spirit of Qurbani to life in the most beautiful way.

After we've distributed Qurbani meat and Eid has passed, we continue to empower and uplift the very same communities around the world. By working alongside communities to promote sustainability, your future donations become a stepping stone toward resilience. Food is one core tenet - education, empowerment, and dignity follow.
When families, friends, and entire communities come together to give, the ripple effect is massive. One act becomes many. Pooling resources means more lives touched, more plates filled, and more hope spread. It’s a reminder that we're strongest when we move as one ummah.
Qurbani is also a time to reconnect - with faith, with community, and with purpose. When we give, we don’t just help others. we renew our own sense of gratitude. This sacred act becomes a thread that ties us to the people around us, both near and far, in the name of love and faith.
Qurbani holds a beautiful duality. It’s a deeply personal offering of faith, and at the same time, a communal act of upliftment. In your hands is the power to carry forward the legacy of compassion. Even the simplest offering can become a beacon for those in need.
Let’s make our Qurbani resonate, with meaning, with connection, with heart.
🤲 Fulfil your Qurbani now — and be the reason someone smiles this Eid.
