- FAQ #1
What is the Aqeeqah Program?
The Aqeeqah Program of the Muslim Welfare Organization is a charitable initiative that facilitates the Islamic tradition of offering a sacrifice to celebrate the birth of a child. The program provides a convenient and cost-effective way for families to perform Aqeeqah, with the meat distributed to underprivileged communities as a form of Sadaqah (charity).
- FAQ #2
How does the Aqeeqah Program work?
Participants can choose from various sacrificial options (e.g., goats, sheep, or other permissible animals) through the program. Once the payment is made, the Muslim Welfare Organization arranges for the animal to be sacrificed according to Islamic guidelines. The meat is then distributed to needy individuals, including orphans, widows, and impoverished families.
- FAQ #3
Where is the meat from the Aqeeqah distributed?
The meat is distributed to deserving communities in areas of greatest need, such as rural villages, urban slums, and orphanages. The organization ensures that the distribution benefits those who struggle with food insecurity and aligns with the donor’s intentions.
- FAQ #4
Can I choose the date for my Aqeeqah?
Yes, participants can specify their preferred date for the Aqeeqah, and the Muslim Welfare Organization will do its best to accommodate it. Early scheduling is recommended to ensure the availability of resources and timely arrangements for the sacrifice.
