Qurbani in Africa
Qurbani in Africa
A Prophetic Legacy. A Mercy to the Forgotten.
Qurbani is not just an act of slaughter — it’s the revival of a powerful legacy. It connects us to three prophets: Ibrahim (عليه السلام) in his willingness to sacrifice, Ismail (عليه السلام) in his obedience, and Muhammad ﷺ, who offered Qurbani every year and urged his Ummah to do the same.
“Say, ‘Indeed, my prayer, my sacrifice, my life and my death are for Allah, Lord of the worlds.’”
(Qur’an 6:162)
When you offer your Qurbani in Africa, you’re not only fulfilling a sacred Sunnah — you’re honouring the resilience of struggling Muslim communities, many of whom live without access to meat all year round.
Why Africa?
Across parts of Sub-Saharan Africa, meat is almost entirely absent from daily life. Families rely on grains or rice. Protein is scarce. Children grow up never knowing the taste of fresh meat, not even on Eid.
In some villages, your Qurbani animal may be the only one slaughtered that day. The whole community gathers — not for a feast, but for a blessing they’ve been praying for.
Your Qurbani becomes an answered dua.
A Sunnah Revived, A Soul Nourished
The Prophet ﷺ sacrificed two animals with his own hands and said:
“This is on behalf of my Ummah, for those who testify to the Oneness of Allah.”
(Ahmad)
Qurbani is about obedience, compassion, and remembrance. It’s about reviving a Sunnah that began with a father’s sacrifice and continues with every believer who gives for Allah’s sake alone.
When you give Qurbani in Africa through HCR, you:
- Fulfil a sacred obligation
- Feed entire villages in need
- Share the joy of Eid with the Ummah
- Earn the reward of every bite eaten
Give Your Qurbani Where It’s Most Needed
In these blessed days, your sacrifice can reach the most remote, underserved Muslim communities, where there are no charities nearby and no resources for Eid.
Let your Qurbani follow the path of the Prophets. Let it nourish a soul. Let it reach those who wait all year for a chance to taste the blessings of Eid.
“For every hair on the animal, you receive a reward.” (Ibn Majah)
Don’t miss out.
