Summary
The Sarawak State Fatwa Council ruled that meat from a sunnah sacrifice may be eaten by or given to non-Muslims in isolated cases, meaning under certain circumstances. This is permitted on the basis of the interest of da'wah in a plural society. For an obligatory sacrifice, giving the meat to non-Muslims is not permitted.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Daging korban sunat boleh dimakan atau diberi kepada orang bukan Islam dalam masalah terpencil (dalam keadaan tertentu) atas sebab maslahat dakwah dalam masyarakat majmuk, sementara korban wajib adalah tidak harus.
