Summary

The Johor State Fatwa Committee adopts the well-known Shafi'i position that qurban meat, whether from a voluntary or obligatory sacrifice, may not be given to non-Muslims. However, meat from a voluntary sacrifice that is cooked and served at a feast or shared with non-Muslim colleagues known for their good relations with Muslims is permitted, based on the view of Imam an-Nawawi. In distribution, local Muslims in need must be prioritised, and only surplus meat from a voluntary sacrifice may be given to poor non-Muslims (kafir zimmi) who are on good terms with Muslims, on the basis of da'wah and siyasah syar'iyyah.

Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.

Menurut pandangan mazhab as-Syafii yang masyhur, tidak dibolehkan memberi daging korban sama ada korban sunat atau korban wajib kepada orang bukan Islam kerana ibadah korban adalah ketaatan untuk mendekatkan diri kepada Allah S.W.T.
