What is the deadline to secure an animal?
The last day of Eid.
Will I receive any feedback on my Qurbani when it is completed?
We guarantee that all the animals will be slaughtered on the days of Eid. Beyond that if you require specific personal notification, then please drop us an email at qurbani@imamdp.org to arrange.
How will the meat be distributed?
Imams will have a voucher ticket system in place to hand out to members of his community. Each voucher holder will receive 1 meat parcel.
Will the name of the person/people whom Qurbani is being made be mentioned at the time of sacrifice?
Due to the number of Qurbanis that will be done it isn’t possible to do this. Also, it is not necessary according to the Shariah to pronounce the name of the person intended/donor. The intention of the donor suffices.
Who will be responsible to ensure my Qurbani is fulfilled correctly?
IDP is wholly responsible for ensuring that this Amanah is rightly upheld. From the Imam and his Qurbani team to Sh Bilal Ismail and the IDP Team.
What happens if Eid in my country is before or after the day of Eid in the Imams country?
The day and time of slaughter is dependant on the country where the animal is being slaughtered according to the Shariah and not the country of the donor.
