Can the Meat of the Qurbani Slaughtered for the Late Ones Be Eaten?

It is permissible to eat, feed others, and donate the meat of the qurbani slaughtered for the late ones.

However, to provide more benefit to the late ones in their spiritual rank in the hereafter, it is recommended to donate the meat of these qurbanis to the needy, orphans, and students of knowledge. Because the main purpose of performing all good deeds for the deceased is to pray for them and to be a means of prayer. Therefore, it is most virtuous to share the meat of these qurbanis with neighbors or with orphans and the needy in distant places. Especially to be included in the prayers of orphans and those engaged in knowledge is one of the greatest blessings.

Can We Offer Mevlid Meals and Acts of Charity for Our Late Ones?

In addition to performing qurbani for the late ones, offering meals and helping those who do not have food on their tables, especially orphans, will increase the reward of the act. At Qurban.uk, we deliver the meat of your qurbanis to orphans, the needy, and students of knowledge in Africa and Central Asia countries. In addition, when you wish to offer the meat of your qurbani, a small additional donation is requested to cover the food costs, and your charity is delivered. The videos of the late ones' names, for whom you made the offerings, are sent to you within 2-3 days, allowing you to see with your own eyes how your donations have reached the recipients. Just like our qurbani slaughter, our mevlid meal offerings continue throughout the year. You can make your donations through the relevant section on our website.

Can We Register in Advance for the Sene-i Devriye (Death Anniversary)?

When you make a qurbani donation through our website or by phone, it is enough to indicate when you wish the qurbani to be slaughtered. You can also register in advance for the qurbani of your loved ones on their death anniversaries by noting the date in the comments section. You can also register for multiple qurbanis for different dates throughout the year in the same way. The busy daily life sometimes causes us to forget even the most important things. We strive to help you remember your loved ones with charity, so you can recall them in goodness. To avoid having to worry about it each time and eliminate the possibility of forgetting, you can also easily make regular qurbani donations through our website.

Other Frequently Asked Questions About Qurbani for the Late Ones

• Is it permissible to perform qurbani for the deceased during Eid al-Adha?
  It is permissible to perform qurbani for the deceased, just as it is permissible throughout the year, during Eid al-Adha as well. This will increase their spiritual rank and be a means of mercy.
• Can a qurbani be performed from the inheritance of the deceased?
  If the deceased has made a will and the third of their property is sufficient for qurbani, it can be performed from their inheritance. Even if they did not make a will or the inheritance is insufficient, the heirs can perform qurbani on behalf of the deceased. This act will bring mercy to the deceased and blessings to the heirs.
• Is it necessary to mention the name of the deceased when performing qurbani for the late ones? Can it be done for all deceased?
  The qurbani performed for the late ones can be for a specific individual, or it can be done for all ancestors (e.g., father, mother, grandparents). The reward of the qurbani is donated to their souls. When the meat of the qurbani is donated, the prayers of the recipients will also serve as a source of mercy for all.
• What should be done if the deceased had made a vow (adaq)?
  If the deceased passed away without fulfilling their vow (adaq), they should be freed from this duty. If the deceased's wealth is sufficient, the qurbani should be performed from their property. If the deceased’s estate is insufficient, their children can fulfill this vow from their own property. May Allah grant us righteous children.
