Qatar Red Crescent Society (QRCS) has launched a QR6 million Adhahi Project for the year 1440 AH, with the aim of facilitating the observation of Islamic Udhiya sacrifice ritual.
The theme of the project is ‘Udhiya Is the True Eid’.
Under the project, the Adhahi sacrifices will be distributed in the form of food aid to a total of 184,000 beneficiaries in Qatar and 23 African and Asian countries.
QRCS Secretary-General Ali bin Hassan al Hammadi greeted the Qatari people and the Muslim nations for the approaching Eid Al-Adha.
“For the second year in a row, QRCS launches the Adhahi Project. To make it easy for everyone to observe the ritual, we will undertake the whole process on behalf of the participating public. All you have to do is to choose your animal, specify where it will be used and pay the price. After that, we will do everything for you,” he said.
In Qatar, Widam Food Company will provide and slaughter 800 sheep within the legal and health regulations. QRCS personnel and volunteers will distribute the meat to the needy families registered with the social assistance programmes.
QRCS has partnered with Islamic Relief and Munazzamat Al-Da’wa Al-Islamiyya to distribute Adhahi food aid worth QR5,586,500 to 176,000 needy people in 23 countries including Chad, Mawali, Somalia, Ethiopia, Myanmar, Nepal, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, Yemen, Syria, Gaza, Togo, Mali, Kenya, Uganda, Zanzibar, Ivory Coast, The Gambia, Sudan, Burundi, Rwanda, Eritrea and Ghana.
To choose your animal and pay the price, you can go to QRCS’s agents at malls and Al Meera stores, visit QRCS’s website (www.qrcs.org.qa), or send SMS.
