Qurban 2016
Assalammualaikum wr wb,
How fast time flies when we are actively working and sometimes we don't realise thats it is already the last day.
Perhaps it is the same with you. In our busy schedules we tend to forget many things that include our ibadah to Allah swt.
Qurban is one ibadah for those that could afford. We always hear that during the Prophets SAW's time, the sahabah tend to compete with each other to perform the best ibadah that they could to attain Allah's blessings. And this includes the ibadah Qurban.
So its still not too late to perform the Qurban. Last registrations will be taken up at 3pm today. Insyallah. Every other country have closed orders except for Indonesia - Pasuruan & Semarang
Allow us to perform Qurban / Aqiqah on your behalf, in your name, your family's name, your Arwah's name or to whom you wish to dedicate and make doa to.
Do get the details from our website at www.qurban.sg.
If you need further clarifications, you can call or whatsapp Brother Khai at 9828 0447.

What's happening in Pasuruan Indonesia
Alhamdulillah, we have completed the first batch of 200 sheeps yesterday.
We manage to cover 3 locations for distribution. We got to the 4th location but it was almost 10pm to give out Al Quran. But the Kiayi ( Principle of the School ) from the Pesantren requested for us to come again the next day to give it out as most of the students are asleep.
Locations we mange to cover
1) Darul Aitam Orphanage
2) Lapindo Community
3) Pesantren Tahfiz for Ladies
1) Darul Aitam Orphanage.
This location is the regular location that we distribute our meat and offer used clothing to the community here. There are over 80 children from age 5 years old to 16 years old here. They either do not have parents at all or brought up by single mothers who lives close by the building.
Here 400 meat had been distributed.
Alhamdulillah. From your generous contribution we manage to collect a small amount of $800 ++ of cash too for Pasuruan area. About $200 ( 1.8 million rupiah ) have been distributed at this location by hand. Here you can see our staff Fadhli giving the money by hand.
2) Lapindo Community
in 2006 the whole area of Lapindo ( The size of Pasir Ris, Tampines and Bedok ) combined was flooded with Molten rock through an industrial accident and the residents there had to be evacuated and leave their belongings there.
10 years down the road, the Indonesia government were able to provide them new housing and locate them to various parts of Indonesia. This community is currently doing their best to pick themselves up and start a new life.
This community is also our regular recipients of the Meat distribution here in Pasuruan. No cash was given to the people here.
3) Pesantren Tahfiz for Ladies
For a normal person to focus on memorising the Quran, it will take an average about 3 years to do so in a controlled environment away from many distractions. In this Tahfiz school for ladies, about 100 students range from as young as 7 years old to 25 years old. Some of the graduates become teachers there.
This is also a regular location where we distribute money and meat to this school.
About another $200 was awarded to Hafizahs that memorised 20 juz and above. This is a way to motivate them to memorise better insyallah. And we request the Hafizahs to make doa to whom have contributed meat and money to them.
We hope to bring more stories to you by tomorrow insyallah.
Our team in Pasuruan will end their journey at Mt Tosari this evening. Mt Tosari is where we raised $30,000 in January this year to help build a Quran centre. We will send reports of this by tomorrow insyallah.
And they will head to Semarang, Central Java by flight tomorrow insyallah. Half the team will be going back to Singapore.
Team to Vietnam
Our team to Vietnam, will be taking off today to Ho Chi Min City, Vietnam and will be performing the Qurban tomorrow on Wednesday. We hope to get reports from them soon.
Team Malaysia
We had one order for Malaysia. The family decide to drive up to KL to perform the Qurban there.
Our Malaysian Partner, Encik Ahmad welcome and directed this family there.
Insyallah next year we would be able to get a better offer from the Malaysia end so that more of you are able to take up this package to Qurban there.
Cambodia & Australia
We are yet to receive updates from our friends in both this countries. Insyallah they will send their details soon.
In conclusion.
We hope Eid have been great for you and your family. May Allah continue to bless you and your family and provide the continous sustainence from your generous contributions and ibadah.
Do doa for us too. Thank you.
Insyallah hear from you all soon.
