Question
who does qurbaani go to,who do you share it out to,is it the poor
Answer
In the name of Allāh, Most Gracious, Most Merciful
Assalāmu ῾alaykum wa Rahmatullāhi Wabarakātuh
The Qurbāni meat should be consumed by oneself, one’s relatives/friends, the poor and needy. Preferably one third should be given in charity; however, there is no sin if one gives less than one third in charity.
(Bahishti Zewar, Vol.2, Pg.318, Zam Zam)
And Allāh Ta῾āla Knows Best
Wassalāmu ῾alaykum
