" For every hair of the Qurbani you will receive a reward from Allah, and for every strand of its wool you will receive a reward."
(Sahih Tirmidhi)
This Eid Al-Adha, as we prepare our sacrifices in the name of Allah (swt) and help those who are less fortunate, we ask you to turn your thoughts to our Palestinian brothers and sisters. In the occupied Palestinian territories, Lebanon and Jordan, 5 million Palestinian refugees are struggling with unimaginable poverty and hardship.
Palestinian refugees are in urgent need of support. You can make a difference to their lives through Interpal, while completing your holy duty to perform Udhiyyah (Qurbani) during this special time, insh’Allah.

How Interpal Qurbani Works
Meat is expensive for Palestinians due to restricted land, lack of freedom of movement, poverty and restrictions on imports to the territories.

Give us a call on 020 8961 9993 or click here. Your £95 Qurbani will be carried out in the most economical location abroad and you can be assured it will be Shariah compliant.

The Qurbani meat is then frozen. Meat is often a rare luxury for Palestinian refugees, and frozen meat maximises the benefit of your donation.

Interpal then delivers the frozen meat to the West Bank, Gaza Strip, as well as refugee camps in Jordan and Lebanon.
On Eid, we also ensure fresh local meat is distributed to the neediest families so they can take part in the celebrations.

Why give your Qurbani through Interpal?
Your Qurbani can ease the difficulties of our brothers and sisters in the Holy Land, sharing blessings with those in need of aid. Your donation will allow us to provide fresh meat to families in need on Eid day and also allow us to provide frozen meat at a later date. All our Qurbanis are fully Shariah compliant, and we operate a 100% donations policy on all specified donations.
We also take Qurbani donations until the second day of Eid. You can be assured we will fulfil your religious requirements and provide aid to where it will benefit people the most.
How to Donate
Unfortunately, we are unable to accept donations by card.
The climate has become hostile for all those who support Palestinians seeking their rights. Despite the obvious humanitarian crises facing Palestinians, certain groups are seeking to hinder the work of charities like ours. There are people who want to stop us delivering aid to those in need.
With your support, Interpal will continue to overcome the obstacles it faces, as it has done for 25 years. We may not currently be able to take card donations, but you can still donate in other convenient ways so we can continue to deliver impactful aid.
Eid Al-Adha, Qurbani & Zakat Explained
Eid Al Adha, the Festival of Sacrifice, is celebrated during the twelfth month of the Islamic calendar, also known as Dhul Hijjah.
It is enjoined upon every Muslim who has the financial means to perform Qurbani to commemorate the sacrifice that Prophet Ibrahim (as) was prepared to carry out in the name of Allah (swt). Animals that can be sacrificed are goats, cows and camels. This occurs during the days of Eid Al Adha and people celebrate the meaning and completion of this action.
There is no difference between the two terms. Udhiyyah is an Arabic word meaning "blood sacrifice", and ‘Qurbani' is an Urdu and Persian word derived from the Arabic word "Qurban" which literally means an act performed to seek Allah's pleasure.
Qurbani is far more popular among the Muslims of UK, but Udhiyyah is also used commonly.
According to most Muslims, Qurbani is obligatory upon every sane male/female that has wealth in excess to his/her needs. Normally those who are eligible to pay Zakat have to give a Qurbani.
While eligibility for Zakat is based on having wealth in excess of "Nisab", there is no certain Nisab to offer a Qurbani; the only thing which is mentioned by the Prophet (PBUH) is that a person should be capable financially to afford it.
The Nisab value for Zakat can be calculated by using the price of silver or gold. If using the Silver threshold, the Nisab is the monetary value of 595 grams of Silver. If your total wealth is less than the value of Nisaab, you do not have to pay Zakat.
The days of Qurbani are the 10-12th of Dhul Hijjah. Performing Qurbani on the first day is better than the second and the second better than the last.
In towns, cities and villages where Jumaah (Friday prayers) and Eid prayers are performed, Qurbani is not permissible before the Eid salah.
You can order your Qurbani with us anytime before Eid Al Adha, up till the second day of Eid. Interpal will ensure your Qurbani is performed on Eid Day itself (and before the end of the third day for late orders).
Zakat is a pillar of Islam and its reward, along with all other good acts, is multiplied during the blessed month of Ramadan. You are eligible to pay Zakat if the amount of wealth that you have earned is more than the Nisaab (the amount of wealth a person must earn in order for the payment of Zakat to become obligatory). In this case, 2.5% must be given to charity in the form of Zakat.
