Qurbani and Animal Sacrifice in Islam: A Guide to Fulfilling Your Obligation with Cryptocurrency
Qurbani, the act of animal sacrifice, is a profound tradition in Islam, embodying compassion, community, and devotion. Our Islamic charity is dedicated to facilitating this sacred practice, allowing believers to connect with their faith while providing crucial support to those less fortunate. We offer opportunities to perform Qurbani and other sacrifices, ensuring adherence to Islamic guidelines(Halal) and ethical practices.
While Qurbani is strongly associated with Eid al-Adha(Click to donate for Eid al-Adha), it can be performed throughout the year for various intentions. Our institution supports these diverse intentions, upholding the specific customs and rites associated with each type of sacrifice. We prioritize ethical treatment of animals and proper distribution to those in need.
Types of Qurbani Offered:
- Wajib Qurbani: An obligatory sacrifice performed by those who meet specific financial criteria during Eid al-Adha.
- Sunnah Qurbani: A voluntary sacrifice performed during Eid al-Adha, following the tradition of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him).
- Nafl Qurbani: A voluntary sacrifice performed outside of Eid al-Adha, often for personal intentions or in gratitude.
- Aqeeqah: A sacrifice performed to celebrate the birth of a child, expressing gratitude to Allah and providing nourishment to the community.Click to donate directly for the baby’s Aqeeqah(Aqiqah Qurbani).
Understanding the Significance and Rules of Qurbani
Before participating in Qurbani, it’s essential to understand its spiritual significance and the rules governing its performance. Qurbani commemorates Prophet Ibrahim’s willingness to sacrifice his son, Ismail, as an act of obedience to Allah. It symbolizes submission to God’s will and a willingness to part with something valuable for His sake.
Islamic guidelines stipulate that the animal selected for Qurbani must meet specific criteria:
- Health: The animal must be healthy and free from any significant defects or diseases.
- Age: The animal must have reached the required age: sheep and goats should be at least one year old (though some exceptions exist for lambs), cows and buffaloes at least two years old, and camels at least five years old.
- Humane Treatment: The slaughter must be performed swiftly and humanely, minimizing the animal’s suffering.
- Intention (Niyyah): The person performing the Qurbani must have the sincere intention to offer it as an act of worship to Allah. This intention is in the heart of the donor, and his(her) donation remains between Allah and himself(herself).
Important Note: It is permissible for up to seven people to share in the Qurbani of a large animal (cow, buffalo, or camel), making it more accessible for individuals to participate. Aqeeqah, however, is typically performed with one animal (sheep or goat) per child.

Distribution of Qurbani Meat: Reaching Those in Need
A core principle of Qurbani is sharing the blessings with those less fortunate. A significant portion of the meat from the sacrificed animals is distributed among the poor, orphans, widows, and other vulnerable members of the community. This act of charity ensures that the benefits of Qurbani extend beyond the individual performing the sacrifice, fostering a spirit of solidarity and compassion. Our charity has established procedures to ensure fair and efficient distribution, prioritizing those most in need.
What Happens to the Meat After the Animal is Sacrificed?
When you make a Qurbani with us, your intention becomes our sacred duty.
We want to take you on a journey—one we’ve walked many times ourselves, often with tears in our eyes and a heart full of both gratitude and heartbreak. We want you to truly see where your sacrifice goes, how it’s handled, and the real lives it touches.
1. Giving with Your Hands — Even from Miles Away
After the animal is sacrificed, we don’t just see meat. We see trust, responsibility, and a sacred amanah (trust) that you’ve placed in us for the sake of Allah.
The first and most common path your sacrifice takes is the one many people imagine: the meat is cleaned, carefully portioned, packaged with dignity, and directly handed to needy families. We’ve seen children light up not just because they received meat—but because for the first time in months, they knew they’d taste real food with their families. Mothers with trembling hands whisper du’as of gratitude as they hold those packages—many times, they think of you without even knowing your name.
They don’t need to know your name. Allah does. And that’s enough.
2. For the Ones Who Have No Stove to Cook On
But here’s what most people don’t realize: many of the Fuqara we serve don’t have a kitchen. Some don’t even have a roof over their heads. We’ve stood in broken refugee tents and walked through shattered neighborhoods. We’ve spoken to mothers who told us they’ve forgotten the smell of cooked meat.
So for this group, we cook meals ourselves in our charity kitchens using your Qurbani meat. We’ve seen lines of hungry souls waiting quietly—some with bowls, others with just plastic bags—waiting for a hot plate of food they haven’t had in weeks. You cannot imagine the power of a warm meal until you’ve seen a grandmother weep while feeding her orphaned grandchildren something as simple as rice and meat stew.
You gave that. And only Allah can reward you fully.
3. Preserving Barakah Through Meat Products
We’ve also learned from experience that not every family is able to store or cook fresh meat. That’s why, in some cases, we convert your sacrificed meat into minced meat or marinated products, making it easier for families to prepare quickly, even with minimal resources. This prevents waste, ensures maximum use of your donation, and provides long-term ease for those who often have none.
We’ve delivered these packages to widows, to orphan-headed households, to disabled individuals—and every single time, we remember that this is not just meat.
It’s your niyyah. Your prayer. Your hope to help.

Are Udhiyah and Qurbani Exactly the Same?
YES, While both Udhiyah and Qurbani represent the sacrifice of an animal, there’s a subtle difference in their usage. Udhiyah is primarily an Arabic term, and Qurbani is more prevalent in regions with Urdu and Persian influences. In essence, they represent the same act of worship, but the specific word choice might vary depending on the language and region.
Beyond Qurbani: Other Forms of Sadaqah and Zakat
While Qurbani is a significant act of worship and charity, Islam also emphasizes other forms of giving, such as Sadaqah (voluntary charity) and Zakat (obligatory charity). Sadaqah can take many forms, including donating money, providing food or clothing, volunteering time, or offering acts of kindness. Zakat, one of the five pillars of Islam, requires eligible Muslims to donate a portion of their wealth to specific categories of recipients.
Join Our Mission: Distribution of Qurbani Meat to Needy
We invite you to join us in fulfilling this important Islamic tradition. By entrusting your Qurbani to our organization, you contribute to a meaningful cause, helping us provide nourishment and support to vulnerable communities.

We are committed to upholding the highest standards of integrity and transparency in all our operations.
So when you ask, “Where does my sacrifice go?”, know this: it goes exactly where your heart intended it to go. To the hands of those in most need. To the plates of the forgotten. To the hungry child who says “Alhamdulillah” between mouthfuls. To the mother who feels, for a moment, that Allah has not forgotten her.
And we are here to carry that sacrifice on your behalf—with honor, care, and a deep sense of responsibility. Donate with cryptocurrency or your preferred method and make a difference today.
May your Qurbani be accepted, and may it be a means of shade for you on the Day when no shade will exist but His. Ameen.
