Q: My husband is a student of deen and his parents help us for our living. I do teach and get a monthly salary alhmdulillah. From it I give 2/3 and keep 1/3 for me.

Now for qurbaani I wanted to do it here in South Africa but my husband said "the best in reward" is that I do in another country cheaper and give the extra with the 2/3. I do not mind giving.

My question is as follow: Will I get more thawaab in doing qurbaani here in South Africa or in doing somewhere else cheaper and giving the extra of my qurbaani budget to help with the expenses?

Using the proceeds from the sale of the qurbaani skins for Musjid renovations

Submitted by user2 on Wed, 2018-09-05 06:43

Q: I am assisting the general public in cutting and skinning the sheep as they do not have any facilities as well as many do not know how to make the slaughter.

A farmer that collects skins for the tannery is prepared to collect the skins and after it has been sorted and graded at the tannery, they will then pay us some cash value of the skins.

Question: Can I donate the proceeds to a Musjid?

Are the proceeds classified as Lillah which could be used for renovations to the Musjid or are the proceeds deemed zakat in which case it can be used to feed the poor?
