When the blessed Eid Al-Adha arrives, the value and importance of sacrifice and giving are renewed in our hearts. Sacrifice is not just a religious ritual; it is an opportunity to encourage solidarity and cooperation among people, and to promote a spirit of brotherhood and love within the community.
Allah Almighty says in the Quran: ” It is neither their meat nor their blood that reaches Allah, but it is Taqwa from you that reaches Him.” (Surah Al-Hajj: 37)
In northwest Syria, many families and communities are suffering from difficult life conditions and continuous deprivation. Approximately 4.5 million people are living in poverty (more than 90% of households are in need of assistance according to HNO 2023).
Donations of sacrifices play a vital role in meeting their basic needs and alleviating their suffering. They provide them with the opportunity to enjoy a delicious meal and enhance well-being and joy during the days of Eid.
Additionally, donating for sacrifices contributes to providing food resources for needy and displaced families, as 1.8 million people have been living in tents for over 10 years.
In challenging circumstances, sacrifices become an important source of protein-rich and nutritious food, improving the health and nutrition of individuals.
Generous giving and participation in this noble act enhance social cohesion and the noble human spirit. Sacrifices can bring happiness and hope to the hearts of others and alleviate some of their suffering. They also reflect our noble Islamic values and promote a spirit of solidarity and cooperation in our society.
Let us collaborate together and make this Eid an opportunity to promote goodness and mercy. Let us work together to alleviate suffering and bring hope to the hearts of people in the war-affected region of northwest Syria.

Every year, Ghiras Al-Nahda launches Adha & Joy campaign amidst challenging living conditions and the basic need for food. The aim is to provide assistance to our displaced people in northern Syria, where we strive to secure the maximum amount of sacrificial meat (sheep and cows) to deliver it fresh to the most needy and deprived families in the camps of northern Syria.
Additionally, we endeavor to bring the joy of Eid to the hearts of our children in northern Syria, particularly the orphans. This is achieved by providing them with Eid clothes, distributing gifts, and organizing Eid parties for them during the Eid days.
Campaign Work Areas:
Idlib countryside and northern Aleppo countryside.
At Ghiras Al-Nahda, we work towards providing all services and activities to our people in Syria, ensuring that the generous donations reach their deserving recipients with the highest quality and integrity. We carefully select and slaughter the sacrifices in accordance with Islamic requirements, and then distribute the meat to the most needy families during Eid Al-Adha.
