Eid Greetings
// December 8th, 2008 // Blog
Another year, another ‘Īd… Ramadan somehow feels just as much a distant memory, as a recently departed event.
I discovered something slightly disturbing today: it costs more to perform the Qurbani in Iraq, than in the UK (£155 vs £95). The first price was taken from the Islamic Relief website, the second from a local London butcher. The cheapest price quoted was for India, just £30. However, the canned meat option for Iraq is cheaper, at £67. Still… quite a shocking price difference.
May Allāh grant our brothers and sisters in Iraq, and all parts of this blue-green Earth, a peaceful ‘Īd, so they may call out the takbeer with true gratitude in their hearts. Āmīn.
A reminder of this awesome group activity:

eid mubarak.
Eid Mubarak to you too, hope you have a good one!
Kudos on the Qurbani thing – I was trying to understand the logic of why the costs on Islamic relief are so high for Iraq – it may be manual labour costs, or maybe distribution costs. Either ways, I selected Kenya – I do know that the meat gets distributed properly there, so that was my choice! :)
Eid Mubarak every Muslim
Eid Mubarak, hope I dont have to go thru this.
