WHY GIVE A SHARE?
Giving a share of an animal is a great way to participate in Qurbani along with others. If you can’t give a sheep or goat, why not give a share of a cow?
Shares are also a wonderful way for families and friends to club together to give a full animal between each member. So, each person can participate in giving a share of a larger animal.
Remember, large animals can be shared when it comes to giving Qurbani:
It was narrated by Jabir that the Prophet (peace be upon him) said: “A cow on behalf of seven and a camel on behalf of seven.”
– Abu Dawud (2808).
WHAT IS QURBANI / UDHIYA?
Qurbani is an Islamic tradition of sacrificing an animal during the month of Dhul-Hijjah, following the renowned practice of Prophet Abraham. It is a time for Muslims to come together to show their gratitude to God and help those in need.
Many of the refugees we serve look forward to this occasion, Muslims and non-Muslims alike.
Ethar Relief is asking for your support to help provide Qurbani meat to refugees in Sudan, Yemen, Djibouti, and Ethiopia. These countries are facing some of the worst humanitarian crises in the world, and your sacrifice will make a real difference in the lives of those who are suffering.
A small Qurbani animal can provide fresh food for up to ten families. Your donation will help to ensure that families have enough to eat during their most difficult times.
WHY GIVE YOUR QURBANI THROUGH ETHAR?
- The newly escalated conflict in Sudan has displaced thousands of people and created the world's worst hunger crisis.
- According to the UN 90% of people in Sudan face acute hunger and famine. Many of those are in hard to reach areas which Ethar Relief is currently serving.
- There are millions of refugees across Sudan, Yemen, Djibouti, and Ethiopia who are in desperate need of good, nutritious food.
- Many refugees don’t ever get to eat fresh meat, except at Qurbani time.
- Additionally, the civil war in Yemen has led to malnutrition among children and adults that's threatening the lives of countless people.
- Djibouti is hosting a huge refugee population from Ethiopia, Eritrea, and other regions, but the provision there is stretched beyond limit.
HOW WE'RE DOING QURBANI THIS YEAR
Ethar Relief is distributing your Qurbani this year with a focus on supporting refugees in Sudan, Yemen, Djibouti, and Ethiopia.
You can imagine the challenge in providing fresh meat to thousands of refugees in some of the world’s most dangerous and vulnerable areas.
This year poses a very difficult challenge: East Sudan, where many refugees from across the region were sheltering, is now affected by the internal conflict within the country.
We are going to provide your Qurbani to as many refugees and displaced people as we can, where needed most and where it’s most viable to deliver the animals. You choose your sacrifice, and we’ll make sure it gets to refugees across East Africa on time.
