2. Is it permissible to use Qurban meat to have a BBQ in order to raise funds which will be used to service the local Muslim community or even donate to the local masjid?
Answer:
(Raddul Muhtaaar: 9/541/542, Darul Ma’rifa)
2) How exactly will funds be raised with the qurbani meat? We can only give a ruling after you tell us the exact procedure. Do, however, note the following:
It is makrooh to sell qurbani meat. If one does sell qurbani meat, it is compulsory to give the money that one made by selling the qurbani meat in charity to the poor who are eligible to receive Zakat. Such money cannot be given to the masjid. Nor can such money be given for public welfare projects.
(Fatawa Mahmudiya: 17/443; Ahsanul fatawa 7/495, 531)
Yes, if A gives his qurbani meat to B i.e. A makes B the owner of the meat, then B can do anything with the meat: he can eat it, sell it, give it in charity etc.
