What Is Qurbani and Why It Matters in 2026
Qurbani — the ritual animal sacrifice performed on Eid ul Adha — is one of the most significant acts of worship in Islam. It commemorates Prophet Ibrahim's (AS) willingness to sacrifice his son Ismail (AS) in submission to Allah, and Allah's mercy in sending a ram in his place. Every Muslim who is sane, adult, and possesses wealth above the nisab threshold (approximately equivalent to 612.36 grams of silver) is obligated to perform Qurbani.
Eid ul Adha 2026 is expected to begin on Wednesday, May 27, 2026, corresponding to the 10th of Dhul Hijjah 1447 AH. Qurbani is valid on the 10th, 11th, and 12th of Dhul Hijjah — giving a three-day window from May 27 to May 29, 2026. The sacrifice must be completed before sunset on the final day.
In 2026, with Gaza enduring its most severe humanitarian crisis in modern history and Afghanistan facing compounding crises of displacement, malnutrition, and poverty, donating Qurbani on behalf of families in these regions is not just a religious obligation fulfilled — it is a lifeline delivered.
Eid ul Adha 2026: Dates, Rules, and Who Must Give Qurbani
When is Eid ul Adha 2026? The 10th of Dhul Hijjah is astronomically expected to fall on May 27, 2026, subject to moon sighting in your region. Eid begins after Fajr prayer on that day, and the window for Qurbani sacrifice opens after the Eid prayer.
Who must give Qurbani? Any Muslim who is of sound mind, has reached puberty, and owns wealth at or above the nisab value on the days of Eid is obligated to give Qurbani. It is not a condition to be free of debt — the nisab is calculated on surplus wealth.
How many shares per household? One Qurbani (one small animal: sheep or goat, or one share of a large animal: cow or camel divided by 7) is required per eligible adult. Many families choose to give one per household member as an act of additional charity.
What animals qualify? Sheep or goat (minimum 1 year old), cow or buffalo (minimum 2 years old), camel (minimum 5 years old). The animal must be free of major defects.
Why Gaza Needs Your Qurbani in 2026
Gaza is experiencing a full-scale blockade that has decimated food supply chains, destroyed markets, and displaced over 1.9 million people. The vast majority of families in Gaza cannot access fresh meat — many have not had a proper protein-based meal in months.
Because of active conflict zones and restricted access, Qurbani for Gaza in 2026 is performed outside the region — typically in Egypt or neighboring areas — and the processed, packed meat is then delivered into Gaza through verified local partners and aid corridors. This is the only way to ensure the meat reaches families safely.
When you donate Qurbani through Aseel, your contribution is tied to a specific delivery tracked through the Atalan (Heroes) network. Every recipient is registered with an Omid ID — a verified humanitarian identification profile — and you receive photo proof of delivery. No guessing. No hoping. Proof.
Qurbani prices for Gaza through Aseel start from $167.04 for a 1/7 share in a cow.

Why Afghanistan Needs Your Qurbani in 2026
Afghanistan is one of the most underfunded humanitarian emergencies on earth. With over 5 million people displaced, a severe malnutrition crisis affecting 2.5 million children, and 115,000+ families without food or shelter, Eid ul Adha is one of the only moments in the year when families have any hope of receiving meat.
For most Afghan families, Eid Qurbani meat is the only animal protein they will eat all year. It is not luxury — it is survival. A full sheep Qurbani through Aseel costs $266.80 and feeds an entire family through the Eid period and beyond.
Aseel's on-the-ground Atalan network operates in Kabul, Balkh, and other provinces, delivering directly to beneficiaries who have been pre-registered and verified. The Aseel Foundation's Afghanistan Emergency Fund has already raised thousands of dollars with every transaction proven and photographed.

Aseel vs. Other Qurbani Platforms: Why Aseel Leads
Most crowdfunding platforms were not built for humanitarian aid. They were built for product campaigns, medical bills, and birthday fundraisers. When you donate Qurbani on GoFundMe, LaunchGood, or Fundraise Up, you are donating into a pool with no guaranteed proof of what was purchased, who received it, or whether the Qurbani conditions were Islamically valid.
Aseel is purpose-built for humanitarian giving with Islamic compliance at its core. Every Qurbani is performed according to Islamic rules. Every delivery is photographed. Every recipient is a real, verified human being with an Omid ID profile — not a beneficiary number in a spreadsheet.
Aseel has been recognized by MIT Solve, won the Extreme Tech Challenge Japan 2023, and is backed by the Million Lives Collective. It is proudly made in the USA, Türkiye, and Afghanistan — by people who understand the ground.
