Give Qurbani in Gaza: Feed the Oppressed
“The Prophet (ﷺ) said: ‘There is no deed more beloved to Allah on the Day of Nahr (Eid al-Adha) than the offering of a sacrifice.’” – Sunan al-Tirmidhi
While we prepare for the festivities of Eid al-Adha, our brothers and sisters in Palestine are facing a reality most of us can’t imagine.
For a family in Gaza, your Qurbani is not just a meal; it is a sign that their Ummah still stands with them. In a place where fresh meat has become a near-impossible luxury, your sacrifice provides the vital nutrition they so desperately need.
The Crisis in Palestine: Why Your Help is Urgent
The situation in Gaza has reached a breaking point. Families are not just facing the scars of conflict; they are fighting a daily battle against starvation.
- 1.6 million Facing Hunger: Roughly 77% of the population in Gaza is currently facing acute food insecurity. For many, finding even a piece of bread is a struggle.
- Childhood Stolen by Malnutrition: It is estimated that 4 out of every 5 children in Gaza are facing catastrophic levels of hunger. Without protein and essential nutrients, a generation is at risk of permanent health damage.
- Extreme Displacement: Over 1.9 million people - nearly 90% of Gaza’s population-have been forced to flee their homes, often multiple times, leaving them with no way to cook or store food.
- High Risk of Famine: With local markets collapsed and croplands destroyed, the risk of famine remains a constant threat. Fresh meat is almost entirely unavailable to the average family.

Important Information about Qurbani in Palestine
We offer two Qurbani options for Palestine. The first option being Qurbani carried out in the West Bank, distributed as fresh meat immediately after sacrifice on the day of Eid.
To provide Qurbani meat for those facing ongoing hardship in Gaza, selected animals are sacrificed on the day of Eid in a Sharia-compliant manner in either Jordan or Egypt. The meat is then preserved, packaged, and transported as canned meat for distribution in Gaza in the following days and weeks.
If we are unable to transport the meat into Gaza within a suitable timeframe, it will be distributed to Palestinian refugees in Egypt or Jordan.
