Udhiya/Qurbani is a sacrifice for the pleasure of God.
During Eid al Adha, Muslims sacrifice an animal and give to those in need, sharing in the joy of the holiday.
This practice is symbolic and commemorates the prophet Abraham’s sacrifice of a ram in place of his son
The Qur’an says,
“It is neither their meat nor their blood that reaches Allah, but it is piety from you that reaches Him.” (22:37)
The animals are sourced in New Jersey, contributing to the local economy and helping local families.
Udhiya /Qurbani takes place at the end of Hajj season, during Eid al Adha.
Our cost is the cost of the animal + the credit card processing fees.
SMILE clients in need receive the meat. Our clients include single mothers, victims of domestic violence, refugees, and families going through hardship.
