Alhamdulillah, we have reached our target for Qurbani this year and so our appeal is now closed. Jazak-Allah for all those who booked their Qurbani with KORT. May Allah accept your Qurbani and bless you and your family abundantly.
This year we capped our Qurbani at two hundred large animals. We will be conducting the qurbani in various locations in Pakistan and Azad Kashmir. This ensures we can do the Qurbani in the permissible time.
Everyone who donated their qurbani with KORT will receive a video of their sacrifice as proof also how and where the qurbani took place.
Here at KORT we source the healthiest animals, getting worth for money with your contributions whilst appreciating our duty as a Muslim and ensuring your Qurbani reaches those who need it the most, on time.
The practice of Qurbani goes back to the Prophet Ibrahim (AS).
It is a sacred act to honour the custom of the blessed Prophet Ibrahim (AS) and Ismail (AS) and their story of sacrifice and devotion to Allah SWT.
Eid-al-Adha, the festival of sacrifice, it is celebrated during the twelfth month of the Islamic calendar, known as Dhul Hijjah- which translates as ‘Lord of the Expedition’. It is throughout this month that pilgrims travel to Makkah in order to visit the Kaaba. Hajj is performed from the eighth to the twelfth of Dhul Hajj. Eid ul-Adha is commemorated on tenth of Dhul Hajj and is celebrated for 3 days.
Qurbani meat is distributed among the needy and vulnerable across the world. A minimum of one third of the meat from the animal must go to poor or vulnerable people. Traditionally, a Muslim would keep one third of the meat for their family and provide the last third to their neighbours.
Those who get the Qurbani meat consist of widows, orphaned children, refugees, the vulnerable, and the senior or disabled individuals. For the majority, meat is not part of their regular diet. The Qurbani meat permits some families to consume meat after an entire year. Your Qurbani can supply up to 50 – 70 meals.
When households receive Qurbani meat, it enables them to commemorate Eid with nutritional food in addition to millions of other Muslims across the world.
