Final Week to Give Qurbani 2025: Make Your Sacrifice Count This Eid al-Adha

Hanen Musa

Eid al-Adha is just around the corner. It's a sacred time for Muslims around the world to honor the legacy of Prophet Ibrahim (AS) through the act of Qurbani, an act of devotion, compassion, and obedience. 

At Muslim Hands USA, every Qurbani is a sacrifice, but more than that, it's a gift of nourishment, fulfillment, and hope for families in need. And with the blessed days of Eid quickly approaching, now is the time to give. 

 When Is the Last Day to Give Qurbani in 2025? 

Qurbani must be performed after the Eid prayer on the 10th of Dhul Hijjah and can continue until sunset on the 13th.  

That means the window to fulfill your obligation is just a few short days during Eid. 

To ensure your sacrifice is carried out on time and according to Islamic guidelines, it's best to give your Qurbani a few days before Eid begins. This gives our teams the time to prepare, source animals locally, and organize distributions in communities where your support is most needed. 

We encourage you not to wait. Giving early means your Qurbani will be ready to reach families across Yemen, Pakistan, Niger, Mali, and other locations, right when they need it most. 

Why You Should Give Qurbani Before Eid Begins 

The days of Eid are blessed, but they pass quickly. Giving Qurbani before Eid begins helps ensure your sacrifice isn't delayed or missed. It also gives our teams time to coordinate efforts across borders and deliver fresh meat during the prescribed days. 

Your early donation means children receive their only meat-based meal of the year on Eid itself. 

It means a widow or orphan won't go hungry on one of the most sacred days on the calendar.  

It means your worship reaches those who most need it at the right time.

What Happens If You Miss the Qurbani Deadline? 

According to Islamic tradition, Qurbani must be completed between the 10th and 13th of Dhul Hijjah. If a person misses this timeframe without a valid reason, the opportunity for reward is lost, and the obligation remains. 

Donating early is always better if you're unsure whether you can give in time. That way, you fulfill the obligation without worry, and your Qurbani is performed on your behalf with complete care and sincerity.

Where Did Your Qurbani Go? See the Impact of 2024 

Last year, your Qurbani became a lifeline. Muslim Hands delivered fresh, halal meat to over 12,000 families across Pakistan, Yemen, India, Mali, Niger, Senegal, and The Gambia. 

Our animals were locally sourced, supporting small farmers and their communities. Our teams distributed meat with care and respect, ensuring families in crisis had something to place on the table for Eid. 

"It is neither their meat nor their blood that reaches Allah, but it is piety from you that reaches Him."

(Surah Al-Hajj 22:37) 

This verse reminds us that Qurbani is not just action; it's about intention, your Niyah, that matters most. 

We uphold this principle with every Qurbani we carry out at Muslim Hands USA.
