On the blessed day of Eid, millions of Muslims around the world will come together to worship and give thanks to Allah (swt). In communities across Africa, Asia, the Middle East and Latin America, your Qurbani will be helping impoverished communities celebrate this day full of joy and happiness. At Muslim Hands, we identify those communities in greatest need before the days of Eid, to ensure that needy families won’t go hungry. For many families, Eid may be the only time of the year they eat meat – a vital source of protein.
Join us and see how your Qurbani makes a real difference in communities like the village of Nganda in Malawi.
Bright and early on the first day of Eid, families head towards the local mosque. Today is a time of unity, community and joy and the masjid is where everyone gathers!
Having made ghusl and put on their best clothes, local brothers and sisters are ready to offer their salah to Allah (swt).
In line with the Sunnah of the Prophet (saw), we offer your Qurbani after Eid prayer. With the meat prepared, and a queue of hungry people waiting to pick up their donations, our team are hard at work preparing a tasty lunch to feed lots of hungry children as they wait!
Some mothers have walked over 12 miles in the early morning to wait in line and pick up their Qurbani. Imagine walking two to three hours to just to collect food for your children... Now the waiting is almost over as local mothers collect their Qurbani vouchers. Stage one is complete!
As the mothers wait to pick up their Qurbani, the children tuck into a tasty lunch with your Qurbani meat. Delicious!
Alhamdulillah, the final stage! Khadija, and many other mothers like her, finally receive their Qurbani meat. Now Khadija can cook a nutritious, protein packed meal for her seven children this Eid.
Distributing your Qurbani over two days at local schools, mosques and residences, we help as many people as possible to ensure that no family goes hungry over Eid.
This is why your support is so invaluable. YOU help make Eid for children like these happy, homely and most importantly hunger-free. From the children of Nganda - thank you!
