Qurbani is an act of worship in Islam that takes place during the time of Eid al-Adha. It is the sacrifice of an animal in the name of Allah, for the sake of Allah, showing complete submission and sincerity to Him. This ritual takes place every year during the blessed month of Dhul Hijjah, and is now made easier through charity platforms such as Orphans in Need that offer Qurbani online services. By choosing to give a Qurbani donation online, Muslims around the world can fulfil their religious duty and also help those most in need with ease and confidence.
Why Do We Give Qurbani?
Qurbani remembers the story of Prophet Ibrahim (AS), who was commanded by Allah to sacrifice his son, Ismail (AS). Both father and son showed faith and obedience, accepting to carry out the command. As they prepared for the sacrifice, Allah replaced Ismail (AS) with a ram, rewarding both of them for their sincerity. Allah narrates this in the Quran when he says:
“And We ransomed his son with a great sacrifice, and blessed Abraham [with honourable mention] among later generations: “Peace be Upon Abrahim.” This is how We reward the good doers.”
Today, Muslims honour this act of sacrifice during the time of Eid al-Adha. The meat from the sacrifice of an animal is distributed into three: one for the donor, one for the friends and family, and one for the poor and needy.
Through your Qurbani donations, you’re able to help those in need who would otherwise go without a nutritious meal on the day of Eid.
Giving Qurbani in 2026
In countries like the UK, due to strict regulations around the sacrifice of animals and the lack of access to livestock, it makes it difficult for Muslims to perform their own personal sacrifice. This is why Muslims now choose to donate their Qurbani online, where the sacrifice of an animal is carried out on their behalf.
Through your Islamic donation online, we here at Orphans in Need perform the sacrifice on your behalf following the Islamic guidelines and then distribute the meat to those most in need. This helps take the weight off your shoulders, so that you can have peace of mind that your duty is being fulfilled, and those in need are being taken care of.
Online Qurbani
This flexibility to make an online Qurbani is a great practical and inclusive option. In just a few steps, you can choose to give your Qurbani donation online, where you can select the type of animal you wish to be sacrificed, and the country in which you’d like its meat to be distributed to those in need.
Animals such as sheep, goats, cows, buffalo, and camels are used for Qurbani. Larger animals, such as the cows, buffalo and camels, can be shared between up to seven people, whereas a sheep or goat will be counted as an individual Qurbani.
Whatever animal you wish to sacrifice in whichever country you wish, how to donate Qurbani online is now simple and secure.
