IRSYAD HUKUM KHAS HAJI DAN KORBAN SIRI KE-93: HUKUM MENGGUNAKAN DAGING KORBAN UNTUK MAJLIS KENDURI

Can sacrificial meat be used for a feast?

Short answer

Using sacrificial (korban) meat for a feast is permissible. A portion must be given to the poor as charity in raw form, since cooking the meat and inviting them to eat it is not sufficient.

Summary

Using sacrificial (korban) meat for a feast is permissible. A portion must be given to the poor as charity in raw form, since cooking the meat and inviting them to eat it is not sufficient. The remainder may be cooked and served to guests. The ruling adds that the most virtuous course is to give away nearly all the meat, keeping only a small morsel to eat for blessing.

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

Hukum menggunakan daging korban untuk majlis kenduri adalah harus, namun mestilah diperuntukkan sebahagian daging korban dengan cara ia disedekahkan dalam keadaan mentah kepada golongan fakir miskin
