Performing Wajib Qurbanis for Quran Students in Africa and Asia
“Once our beloved Prophet Muhammad (saw) was asked, what is Qurbani? The Prophet (saw) answered: ‘It is the Sunnah of your father Ibrahim (as). For every hair of the Qurbani, you receive a reward from Allah (SWT)” – Tirmidhi
This sacrifice commemorates the actions of the Prophet Ibrahim (as), when he was prepared to sacrifice his beloved son Ismail (as) after seeing in a dream that Allah wanted him to do so. However, the dream was a test from Allah, and He sent down a ram from heaven to be sacrificed in Isma’il’s (as) place.
By sacrificing a Qurbani each year, we are confirming that we are willing to sacrifice whatever Allah asks of us and to submit to Him completely.
The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) emphasized the importance of Qurbani, saying:
“There is nothing dearer to Allah during the days of sacrifice than the sacrificing of animals. The sacrificed animal shall come on the Day of Judgment with its horns, hair, and hooves. Indeed, the blood reaches Allah before it even reaches the ground. So, purify yourselves with it.” (Sunan Ibn Majah, 3126)
Performing Qurbani is not just a tradition but an expression of our faith, gratitude, and willingness to share our blessings with those in need.
How Your Qurbani Helps
Your Qurbani this year is more than a sacrifice — it’s an act of compassion that reaches the hearts of young Qur’an students across the globe.
In seven countries — Chad, Niger, Djibouti, Burkina Faso, Cameroon, Malawi, and Indonesia — your Qurbani will be delivered directly to Islamic boarding schools (madrasahs) and to the families in need.
These students and families often live far from home with limited resources. Your gift provides them not only with nutritious meat during Eid, but also with a sense of care, dignity, and belonging. By supporting these communities, you are helping sustain a new generation of scholars, imams, and leaders who will carry the light of the Qur’an into their communities.
🤲 One Qurbani. Seven nations. Countless hearts touched.
