India is home to approximately 200 million Muslims, the third-largest Muslim population in the world. Yet Indian Muslims are over-represented among the country's poor. In Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, West Bengal, Assam and parts of southern India, millions of Muslim families live on incomes that put fresh meat permanently out of reach.
When you give your Qurbani in India, you are reaching a community whose poverty rarely makes international headlines but whose need is just as real as anywhere in our network.
Muslims In Need distributes across Hyderabad, Lucknow, Murshidabad in West Bengal, parts of rural Bihar and Assam, and Muslim-majority pockets of Uttar Pradesh. Distribution prioritises widows, orphans, daily-wage workers and families displaced by communal tensions.
How your Qurbani is performed in India
Animals are sourced from local Indian livestock markets in regions where animal sacrifice is legally permitted. Goat is the predominant Qurbani animal in India for both legal and cultural reasons. Every animal meets the Shariah requirements: minimum one year, free of disqualifying defects.
Slaughter is performed by a trained Muslim butcher facing the qiblah with the recitation of "Bismillah, Allahu Akbar" on your behalf. Meat is packaged and distributed Hand to Hand to pre-verified Muslim families.

Note on cow Qurbani in India: cow sacrifice is restricted or prohibited in many Indian states. Where regulations apply, we substitute with goat Qurbani of equivalent value, ensuring the Sunnah is fulfilled and the meat reaches the same families. Buffalo is also permitted in classical fiqh and may be substituted in some regions.
Why your Qurbani in India matters
The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: "The Muslim is the brother of the Muslim. He does not wrong him, nor does he hand him over to an enemy." (Bukhari, Muslim) The poverty faced by India's Muslim minority is often invisible to the global ummah. Your Qurbani in India is a quiet act of brotherhood reaching a community that needs to be remembered.
