QUESTION

Is it permissible to give certain parts of the Qurbani/Udhiyah meat to non-Muslims, since there are parts which Cape Town Muslims are usually not accustomed to eating?

ANSWER

It is not permissible to give certain parts of the slaughtered animal to non-Muslims. However, if there are certain parts of the slaughtered animal which the Muslims are not inclined to eat, then it will be permissible to give those parts to the non-Muslims rather than throwing it away.
