Hyderabad: Ahead of Eid Al Adha, an increasing number of people in Hyderabad are opting for the Qurbani Service instead of the traditional practice of buying animals for the Qurbani. This shift in preference is primarily driven by the convenience offered by Qurbani Service, which includes the entire process from animal procurement to doorstep delivery of meat.
In a conversation with Siasat.com, Irshad Ahmed, a resident of Attapur, Hyderabad expressed his satisfaction with opting for Qurbani Service over the past few years. He highlighted the advantages, stating that it allows him to fully enjoy the festival without the hassle of searching for a butcher who is typically in high demand during Eid Al Adha. Moreover, from a hygienic standpoint, Qurbani Service is superior as it eliminates concerns about managing animal waste, added Ahmed.
Convenience emerges as a common rationale among individuals who choose Qurbani Service.

Additionally, the necessity for these services has increased due to the growing number of people residing in apartments, where finding suitable spaces for animal slaughtering is a challenge.
As the demand for Qurbani services continues to rise, numerous organizations and traders in Hyderabad have begun offering them.
These providers offer comprehensive packages that cover all aspects, including animal purchase, slaughtering, and the subsequent delivery of meat to customers’ doorsteps. Customers are required to make a lump sum payment for the entire service.
