Qurbani Sacrificing the Cow

Next we performed the Qurbani. we said “Bismillahi Allahu Akbar” and sacrificed our cow. It is spiritual moment that reminds us of the story of Prophet Ibrahim (AS).

We feel thankful to Allah and remember that real sacrifice is not just giving up meat its about giving from the heart.

Distributing Meat to the Poor

We divided the meat into three equal part:

• One part for our own use
• One part for our relatives and neighbors
• One part for poor and needy people

We packed the meat in clean plastic bags and personaly gave it to those who needed it. This made us feel blesed and happy. Its one of the most important part of Eid ul-Adha.

BBQ Night Family & Students Together

BBQ Preparation Process (Step by Step)

Our BBQ night was one of the most fun parts of Eid!

We decided to use some of the fresh Qurbani meat to make Seekh Kebabs and Tikka Boti. Here how we prepared everything:

1. Cutting the Meat

We cut the beef into small cubes for tikka and minced meat . We made sure the meat was soft and clean.

2. Making the Marinade

We made a tasty marinade using:

• Yogurt
• Ginger garlic paste (
• Red chili Powder and black peper
• Lemon juice
• Cumin powder and garam masala
• Salt and oil

We mixed the meat with this marinad and kept it for 2 to 3 hours so all the flavors could go deep into the meat.

3. Preparing the BBQ Setup

We used charcoal to make the BBQ. First we lit the coals and waited for them to turn red hot. This took about 20 minutes. Then we placed the marinated meat on metal skewers.

The skewers were placed on a stand over the coals. We kept turning them every few minutes so that the meat cooked evenly. The smell of spices and smoke made everyone feel hungry!

Inviting My Students

This year I did something new I invited some of my students to join the BBQ party. It made the celebrations more meaningful. They were very happy and excited to be part of our family gathering

We sat together on mats talked laughed and share stories while eating the fresh BBQ. Some student help with turning the skewer and fanning the coal It became time of learning bonding and joy for Everyone.

What Eid Means to Me

For me Eid ul-Adha is about much more than just meat. It’s about:

• Obeying Allah
• Sharing with the less fortunate
• Spreading love and joy
• Being together with family friends and students

This Eid was very special because I got to share it with my loved ones and my students making it both warm and memorable.
