RAWALPINDI:

As Eidul Azha approaches, online Qurbani services have begun in Rawalpindi and Islamabad, offering both small and large animals for sacrifice.

Bookings are now open, and under the new system, citizens can receive sacrificial meat at home without visiting animal markets.

Instead of receiving a physical share in the animal (such as a cow, bull, goat, or sheep), participants will receive packaged meat.

For collective sacrifices, shares are being offered and booked online.

It has been announced that all animals for Qurbani will be healthy and the meat provided will be of high quality.

A share of a cow, bull, or calf sacrificed on the first day of Eid is priced at Rs40,000, entitling the participant to 16 kilograms of meat delivered to their home.

On the second day, the share will cost Rs38,000, with the same quantity of meat delivered. The price for a goat or sheep is set at Rs70,000, with 14 kilograms of meat delivered.

Private sector groups and religious organisations have become active in managing collective sacrifices. Payments can be made online, with teams available to collect the money in person too.

Delivery of meat to each participant is promised between 1pm and 5pm on Eid days.

Organisations such as Jamaat-e-Islami, Alkhidmat Foundation, Akhuwat, and others have also started selling sacrificial animals online.

Photos and videos of the animals, along with their prices, are being uploaded for selection and purchase. A weight-based pricing system is being introduced, with animals sold per kilogram based on current market rates.
