Where Does Your Qurbani Go?

When you donate Qurbani with Al Mustafa Welfare Trust, your sacrifice follows a transparent, carefully managed journey:

Step 1:

When you select a specific country or choose 'Where Most Needed', our teams allocate based on the greatest need.

Step 2:

Our on-the-ground teams purchase a healthy, Shariah-compliant animal directly from local farmers. Buying locally keeps costs fair and supports local agricultural economies.

Step 3:

All animals are slaughtered by qualified personnel within the permitted days of Eid al-Adha (10th–12th Dhul Hijjah), after the Eid prayer.

Step 4:

Our local teams, who know their communities, identify the most vulnerable families: widows, orphans, the elderly, and those living in extreme poverty.

Step 5:

Fresh meat is distributed directly to families. For many, this is the only fresh meat they receive all year.

The 10 Blessed Days of Dhul Hijjah

The first ten days of Dhul Hijjah are among the most sacred in the Islamic calendar. The Prophet (PBUH) said that good deeds performed in these days are more beloved to Allah than at any other time of year.

We offer a special 10 Days of Dhul Hijjah programme, allowing you to schedule daily donations across these blessed days, maximising your reward throughout the season. Visit our 10 Days of Dhul Hijjah page to set up your giving plan today.

How much does Qurbani cost in the UK in 2026?

Qurbani prices in the UK for 2026 start from £25 for a cow share in India, £45 for a sheep in Somalia, and £55 for a cow share in Pakistan. The cost depends on the country of sacrifice and the type of animal chosen. Al Mustafa Welfare Trust offers Qurbani across 21 countries, with prices from £25 to £2,275 for a full cow in Gaza.

What is the cheapest Qurbani in the UK for 2026?

The most affordable Qurbani options in the UK for 2026 are a cow share in India from £25 or a sheep/goat in Somalia, Kenya, Ethiopia, Sudan, Gambia, or Tanzania from £45–£70. These are fully valid Qurbanis that meet all Shariah requirements, the lower price reflects the lower cost of livestock in these regions, not a lesser quality of sacrifice.

When does Qurbani 2026 take place?

Qurbani 2026 takes place on the 10th, 11th, and 12th of Dhul Hijjah 1447 AH, expected to fall on 26th, 27th, and 28th May 2026 in the UK, subject to moon sighting. The sacrifice must be performed after the Eid prayer on the first day and before sunset on the final day. Al Mustafa Welfare Trust carries out all Qurbanis within this window.

Can I give more than one Qurbani?

Yes. Many Muslims choose to give additional Qurbanis, for example, one on behalf of themselves and one on behalf of a deceased parent, or extra Qurbanis as additional acts of charity. There is no upper limit. Each additional Qurbani adds to your charitable impact and is a source of extra reward.

Why is Qurbani so expensive in Gaza compared to other countries?

Qurbani in Gaza is significantly more expensive due to the severe humanitarian crisis that has dramatically restricted the movement of goods, animals, and personnel. Al Mustafa Welfare Trust maintains an active Qurbani programme in Gaza because the need there is among the greatest in the world.
