Goat or Sheep for Aqiqah and Qurban? How to Choose

Both Goat and Sheep Are Valid

For both Aqiqah and Qurban, goat and sheep (including lamb) are permissible and widely used. The choice often comes down to preference, budget, and how you plan to use the meat.

Sheep (Lamb)

Sheep is often chosen for its tender, mild-flavoured meat. It suits curries, biryani, grilling, and roasts. Whole sheep are available in various weight bands for Qurban and Aqiqah.

Goat

Goat meat is leaner and has a distinct flavour. It is popular in many Asian and Middle Eastern dishes. Goat is also commonly used for Aqiqah and Qurban and can be more economical in certain weight ranges.
