Qurbani in Gaza: A Path Made Through Perseverance

"And whoever saves one life – it is as if he had saved mankind entirely."
(Surah Al-Ma’idah, 5:32)

Performing Qurbani for Gaza is not simple—but it’s possible. And it starts with you.

This year, your Qurbani donation is turned into canned meat—a lifeline for families in Gaza where fresh meat is almost impossible to access.

How It Works – Step by Step

Your Qurbani donation is used to purchase high-quality cattle in India, meeting all Islamic criteria:

At least 2 years old

Free of defects and illness

Physically healthy and above 200 kg in weight

During Eid and the Days of Tashreeq, the animals are slaughtered according to strict Shariah guidelines.

The meat is immediately transported to a certified facility in Dubai, where it is professionally cooked, processed into corned beef, and canned. This process ensures:

2–3 year shelf life

Safe transport through unpredictable border delays

No spoilage or contamination

After canning, the shipment is routed through border clearance into Gaza, a process that can take months of coordination.

Alhamdulillah, after 6 months of logistical effort, our team was able to get Qurbani meat into Gaza—safely, properly, and with dignity.

 

Why This Method?

Due to the blockade and siege, it is nearly impossible to source healthy sheep or cows inside Gaza. Even if sourced, the risk of:

Rotten meat due to border delays

Limited processing capabilities

Lack of refrigeration

makes local slaughtering infeasible.

By canning the meat outside Gaza and transporting it in, we ensure delivery without compromising Shariah or safety.

This is not just Qurbani.

This is a lifeline—packaged, preserved, and delivered with ihsan.
