Jeddah (IINA) - Dr. Ahmed Mohammad Ali, president of the Islamic Development Bank (IDB) announced on Thursday the price of livestock for 1436 Hajj at 475 Saudi Riyals (US$ 131 or Euro 99) per each.
The chief of IDB said, “Adahi" project is one of the services offered by the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia to pilgrims in order to help them in performing their religious duties”.
He added that “Adahi" project is meant to serve the pilgrims by providing livestock that meet all Shari’a and health requirements and by ensuring the cleanliness of the environment around the Holy Sites.
The Project aims at making the meat available to its rightful beneficiaries among the poor at the Holy Mosque and Holy Sites as well as beneficiaries in many Muslim countries and Muslim communities all over the world.
Dr. Ali indicated that the Government of the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques has spent over SR 1 billion on the modern automated slaughterhouses, which are equipped with state-of-the-art facilities.
He also said that people could purchase coupons through the Project website www.adahi.org for rites such as “Hady" or “Odhiya”, or “Sadaqa”, either through credit card or money transfer.
It is worthy to note that “Adahi” project, last year, recorded a utilisation of (960,829) livestock which were later distributed amongst the needy in 20 countries.
