Thanks to your generosity last year;

"I Recognized You Immediately"

The moment I saw you, I recognized you.
You came last year too—and now you're here again.
Lately, it's been harder than ever to make ends meet.
I used to get by with the little my working son sent me, but now even that has stopped.
My other son, Muhammad, had to drop out of school.
We manage day by day thanks to the kindness of our neighbors.

With the Qurbani meat you brought, I’ll cook a rice dish with meat for my son.
I’ll save the rest for later.

May God always bless you with even more than you give.

Frequently Asked Questions

• Do you send a photo of the Qurban being slaughtered?
  Unfortunately, we cannot find the opportunity to do such a thing due to the conditions in the regions. You can see representative photos of the distribution regions on our website. We send the donors an SMS after the slaughter of Qurban is finished.

• What are the main objectives intended by the sacrifice?
  When carrying out the qurban project, our foundation acts with the awareness that primarily this is a form of worship and the main aim of this is attaining the pleasure of Allah (swt). With this awareness, the points we pay attention to in particular when conducting this are as follows: Acting as an intermediary in fulfilling our donators worship of sacrifice; bringing a community together by celebrating eid with millions of Muslims brothers in tens of countries and regions; being a source of morale, motivation and joy of life to people in different parts of the Islamic geography; monitoring the developments in the regions, the experiences, developments in our fellow geographies onsite; monitoring the needs, planning the projects necessary to solve issues and bring these to the attention of charitable Muslim societies, and of course distributing the meat from the sacrifices to those in need.

• How does IHH determine people in need?
  In the regions where IHH operates, various humanitarian projects continue throughout the year. With the support of our local partner organizations, we identify the most vulnerable communities and focus our efforts on addressing their most urgent needs. As part of IHH Humanitarian Relief Foundation’s Qurbani distribution program, priority is given to crisis zones, refugee camps, victims of war and natural disasters, orphanages, orphaned families, the elderly, those without support, widows, impoverished communities, schools, madrasahs, and hospitals. Before each Qurbani campaign, detailed reports are prepared for every designated region to ensure needs-based, effective distribution planning.

• What does IHH take into consideration when determining areas for the Qurbani projects?
  Initially, the most important point in determining regions for the qurban projects is the extent of hardship and poverty. According to this, priority is given to regions afflicted by war and crises, countries and regions affected by natural disasters, poor countries and regions struck by famine and drought, and countries and regions where the Muslim population is a minority.

• Can I appoint an aid organization to perform the sacrifice on my behalf?
  You can appoint various organizations such as foundations and institutions that perform the sacrifice in regions that are in need both locally and abroad. The only condition is that the institution is a trustworthy organization that performs the sacrifice complying with the intention, the Islamic commands, and distributes the meat and skins to places in most need.
